Law enforcement and corporate investigators get more power in ‘cloud’

Chennai: OpenText recently announced that EnCase Forensic and EnCase Endpoint Investigator are now certified on Microsoft Azure.

With Encase solutions in the cloud, law enforcement and corporate investigators can more easily collaborate, enhance evidence processing, investigate in cloud environments, and adjust more quickly to the needs of a remote workforce.

“Industries, employees, and even criminals across the world are embracing new ways to work,” said OpenText chief product officer Muhi Majzoub.

“Digital forensic investigators need to be just as agile. OpenText supports the investigators at the frontlines, finding the digital evidence needed to seek justice or respond to a cyberattack. Embracing the power, scale, and efficiency of the cloud will help digital investigators be more effective.”

OpenText worked to support Microsoft’s focus on public safety and justice to bring the benefits of Microsoft Azure – efficiency, power, and scalability – to OpenText EnCase solutions for digital investigations. Additional EnCase security solutions will be available on Azure.

“Microsoft is dedicated to delivering solutions to help public safety and justice organizations increase the safety of people and the security of the communities they serve,” said Kirk Arthur, senior director of Worldwide Government Industry, Microsoft.
