How is SurfRecon helping me speed up my forensic examinations?
SurfRecon helps you speed up your forensic examinations in several ways. • SurfRecon quickly scans a computer for images and displays them in an easy to review thumbnail viewer. When SurfRecon scans a computer it references the International Forensics Image Database (IFID) to find out if the images it locates have been previously categorized. By referencing the work of officers throughout the world you can quickly find the illegal images on a computer. • SurfRecon also uses the IFID to find out which images are safe. This speeds up your searches by allowing you to focus on the images that are child pornography or unknown. • When you are reviewing a computer you may also submit images (hashes) to the database so that in subsequent computer searches you and your colleagues around the world wont have to repeat work over and over again.
