A Documentation Solution Built for Law Enforcement and Civil Investigators.
Are you ready to leave paper notebooks behind?
Forensic Notes is your digital investigative notebook designed by and for investigators
It is simple to use like a chat application, incredibly secure, and unlike other methods of keeping digital notes, Forensic Notes was built with court disclosure and admissibility in mind.
Designed for front-line officers and investigators, Forensic Notes allows you to take detailed electronic notes at the scene of an incident, and make those notes immediately available to team members and supervisors back at the office.
However, anyone who needs to write contemporaneous notes will benefit from Forensic Notes, including:
• Lawyers
• Human Resource Managers (employee documentation)
• Engineers (patent protection)
• Scientists (research)
• Small & Medium Businesses (contracts, legal documents)
MORE THAN JUST TEXT
Forensic Notes makes it easy to add:
• Images
• Video
• Weather
• Geo-location
• Signatures
• Contacts
Directly into your notes.
Plus, you can work offline when mobile data or WIFI is unavailable.
BUILT WITH THE COURTROOM ALWAYS IN MIND
Whether you intend to be in a courtroom or not, your notes are ready to be a source of credible evidence.
All notes are timestamped, digitally signed and then securely stored on our Microsoft Azure server – trusted by large enterprises and governments. The note is then securely added to our private blockchain to ensure that notes can’t be changed or altered without an audit trail. This is important in legal proceedings when using your contemporaneous notes on the witness stand because failing to disclose changes to your notes could result in witness impeachment.
COLLECT VITAL DIGITAL EVIDENCE AT THE SCENE
Every investigator needs a great partner. And Forensic Notes is no different.
That’s why we have Forensic Witness, our sidekick to Forensic Notes, making it simple to get key digital evidence from witnesses. Whether you need to collect photos, videos, or a digital file, Forensic Witness allows you to obtain these files in a simple, secure and forensic manner.
Of course, this evidence, just like your notes, is digitally timestamped and signed, ensuring you can show digital evidence continuity & chain-of-custody.
The request is sent via SMS or Email and without installing any software, the witness can forensically upload the requested files.
This saves valuable resources and time while ensuring critical evidence is obtained from reluctant witnesses who would never give up possession of their phone to an investigator.
SECURITY IN OUR #1 PRIORITY
Our application uses advanced encryption to ensure your notes are always secure, even on lost devices.
Security features include:
• Multi-Factor Authentication using SMS, Phone Call or Authy App
• 256-bit Symmetric and 2048-bit Asymmetric encryption
• Hosted on Microsoft Azure which meets a broad set of international and industry-specific compliance standards including ISO, HIPAA, FedRAMP and is FIPS 140-2 compliance.
