It provides training, support in English, French, and German, and combines features like Magnet One for investigative collaboration, Magnet Axiom for case management, and Magnet Graykey for lawful data extraction from mobile devices, helping investigators gather crucial evidence efficiently. The software is tailored to meet the needs of various industries, offering resources for public safety and enterprise applications. Key capabilities: rapid triage evidence recovery multilingual support case collaboration lawful data access Best for: law enforcement agencies that need efficient evidence gathering in digital investigations.

Magnet OUTRIDER is a powerful and efficient digital triage tool developed by Magnet Forensics, designed to help investigators quickly assess digital devices for relevant evidence without the need for full forensic imaging. Its primary value lies in its ability to rapidly scan computers, external drives, and mobile devices to identify potential contraband, illicit content, or digital artifacts within minutes, allowing teams to prioritize which devices require deeper forensic analysis. The software is particularly effective in time-sensitive investigations or environments with limited resources, such as field operations or high-volume evidence intake scenarios. OUTRIDER operates from a USB or portable environment and can be run with minimal user intervention, making it suitable for both technical and non-technical users. Its keyword search functionality, support for hash matching against known databases, and integration with Child Rescue Coalition’s technology for detecting CSAM provide a strong foundation for investigations involving sensitive material.
