Cyan Forensics is announcing a new partnership with Susteen. This partnership joins together Cyan Forensics scanning technology software with Susteen’s DataPilot DP10 platform, creating a triage capability for smartphones, meaning that police forces will be able to scan portable devices for illicit materials, such as child sexual abuse, swiftly and accurately.
Evidence collection
