Exterro, a top player in data risk management, just rolled out its latest tool: FTK Imager Pro. This upgrade supercharges the popular FTK Imager, a go-to digital forensics software that investigators around the world download thousands of times each month. Law enforcement, corporate sleuths, eDiscovery experts, and cybersecurity pros have long trusted it for handling digital evidence in everything from crime scenes to data breaches.
The new FTK Imager Pro tackles today’s big hurdles in investigations—like cracking encrypted devices and pulling data from mobile phones. Investigators can now decrypt files on the spot, grab advanced iOS evidence without full device dumps, and preview live data instantly. This means validating clues in minutes, not hours, while keeping the evidence chain intact.
"Every investigation starts with the clock ticking," said Justin Tolman, Forensic Evangelist at Exterro and a former forensic specialist. "FTK Imager Pro delivers speed and efficiency right where examiners need it, helping them wrap up cases quicker and smoother."
Here’s what stands out in the new version:
-
On-the-Fly Decryption: Unlock encrypted drives like BitLocker, APFS/FileVault, McAfee, or Symantec using valid credentials. You get immediate, read-only access to the data without hassle.
-
-
iOS Advanced Logical Collection: Easily collect texts, photos, app info, and call logs from iPhone or iPad with a simple, guided process—no need for complicated full extractions.
-
Direct Decrypted Live Data Access: Ditch those long imaging sessions. Preview files and metadata on the fly to prioritize cases faster.
For more than 15 years, the original FTK Imager has set the bar for digital forensics. Police use it to image seized gadgets for court, businesses rely on it for internal probes and spotting insider threats, eDiscovery teams preserve data for lawsuits, and cybersecurity crews grab info during hacks or malware hunts. Even universities teach it to train the next wave of experts.
This widespread use has turned FTK Imager into the gold standard for reliable, court-approved evidence collection. Now, FTK Imager Pro amps it up for our encrypted, mobile-heavy world, blending speed with the precision investigators demand.
"Investigators can’t afford to spend hours imaging a massive 2TB drive just to check if it’s relevant," said Harsh Behl, Vice President of Product Management for DFIR at Exterro. "FTK Imager Pro shrinks that to a 5- to 15-minute process. It transforms encrypted and mobile evidence from obstacles into quick wins, whether you’re out in the field or prepping for trial."
You can grab FTK Imager Pro right now for $499 per user per year. Head to the Exterro website for a free trial or live demo.
