“Adroit Photo Forensics is easy to use and finds and carves photos better and faster than other forensics tools on the market and is therefore an excellent complement in a forensics toolbox.”

- Thorbjörn Johansson
Swedish National Bureau of Investigation
“In an investigation where thousands of photographs from multiple trail cameras and digital cameras were stored on two hard drives, the ability to sort the images by camera proved invaluable. This simplified the process of identifying the source of the image.”

- Quentin Isley
Alberta Fish and Wildlife Officer
“I generally do not endorse any products; recently, however, we had a case where we were under pressure to find pictures on a computer that were observed by an eyewitness and removed by the user. We searched for hours with our usual suite of forensic tools but came up with nothing. I remembered a presentation where the other speaker spoke of innovative ways in which their product was able to locate, reassemble and provide a report of pictures found in a hard drive. We called the company, bought the tool, and within a few hours we had our pictures. Thumbs up in my book.”

“As our case loads have increased, so has the volume of data that we must process without substantially increasing the cost to our customers. Adroit Photo Forensics has significantly increased the efficiency of our process for screening and rapid identification of not only images of interest, but also of user activity which may be relevant to the case. APF is an indispensible tool to our standard operating procedures for forensic data processing.”

“...smart enough to find and reassemble fragmented photos. This is a big step forward.”

- New York Times
“The Adroit Photo Forensics recovery tool is the most sophisticated image recovery tool available today. It is the only tool that verifies recovered JPEGs the way a human would—by programmatically looking at the images to see if the make sense. Adroit is also the only commercially available tool that can reassemble JPEGs that are fragmented into multiple pieces—something that's especially important when recovering images from digital cameras and cell phones. I can't imagine doing a serious investigation without Adroit.”

“Not only does Adroit recover more evidence than others, but it does it very quickly. It also has very useful options of filtering, sorting and giving you associated information with each recovered file. I use Adroit on every case I can now.“

“Last year I attended a conference and watched a demonstration of the Adroit Photo Forensics and I was intrigued by this product and the research that was being done by NYU. As an examiner in both computer and mobile forensics, I felt that this product could resolve a lot of issues that we run across when trying to recover images from exhibits that had a lot of unallocated space and/or fragmented residual data. The one feature that I find effective is the ability of the software to recover not only the beginning of the fragmented photo, but other parts of the fragmented pieces, then the software allows you work with it like a jigsaw puzzle and put the fragmented images back together. The exact location of the clusters associated to the image are mapped out which is an added benefit to us. Because the software can work with file systems that are not part of the mainstream (FAT, NTFS and HFS), it provides the added ability of the Adroit software to recover the fragmented sections of images from mobile phones as well. I use this software (advanced settings apply) for image recovery from both the Flasher Box (Physical) and Chipoff (RAW) data recovery from mobile phones.”

“We find Adroit Photo Forensic a valuable tool for our digital forensic investigations. Its ability to quickly and accurately recovery active and deleted files from large data sets has assisted us with a wide variety of cases including resource misuse/abuse, intellectual property theft and counterfeit interdiction. If you are involved with electronic investigations, Adroit will be a tool you find yourself using over and over again!”

“The program was designed to help law enforcement, defense and intelligence officials.”

- ABC News
“Adroit Photo Forensics is the best quality carver on the supported files at this moment. The APF carver uses the latest carving techniques and has the best recall and precision scores on recovering files from known datasets like the DFRWS carving datasets."”

“Most applications simply don’t handle images that have been torn into pieces and scrambled that well. His (Dr. Memon) technique takes those shreds and puts them back together.”
