Our law enforcement solutions give you the tools to successfully investigate and document many local crimes in house — child pornography, domestic violence, harassment, narcotics, gambling and identity theft to name a few — without omitting valuable computer evidence or waiting on backlogged labs.

Developed by criminal forensic experts, our forensic solutions remain the tools of choice for the FBI, U.S. Department of Defense and thousands of law enforcement agencies and crime labs around the world. That's because Guidance Software is the world leader in computer forensic technology, and EnCase® software is recognized by the courts and law enforcement agencies as the leading technology for capturing and analyzing computer evidence. Each of our solutions is a computer forensic "Swiss Army Knife", providing a set of tools that helps reduce investigation time up to 65 percent, by our estimates.
