Case Study: a major police department in Greater Atlanta cracks a statutory rape case with Magnet AXIOM

How Upgrading to Magnet AXIOM Helped Crack a Case

A detective with a major police department in the greater Atlanta area was investigating a statutory rape case and needed to access internet history from a Samsung tablet as evidence. Tools from Cellebrite, Oxygen, and MobileEdit, along with their existing Magnet IEF, were unable to extract the crucial browser data. They turned to Magnet Forensics for a solution.

The forensic examiner used a trial of Magnet AXIOM Process, which had a built-in custom recovery image for the specific Samsung device. This provided privileged access to the tablet, allowing for a successful acquisition of the needed browser history. This success directly supported the prosecution's case and led the department to upgrade all of its Magnet IEF licenses to Magnet AXIOM.
