Digital Forensics:
A Challenge and an Opportunity for UK Policing

Criminals are tapping into the very latest digital technology every day and so police forces need to unlock the power of modern, digital forensic technology to gather evidence quickly and efficiently.

 

Legacy technology and applications are unable to tackle this challenge effectively, securely and cost-efficiently due to the sheer scale and complexity of the data involved.

 

An effective digital forensics platform that can scale and adapt is essential to deliver better outcomes for police and victims of crime today, and into the future.

    Delays in examination of devices carries many risks. In some cases, devices held by police may contain sensitive information, such as child sexual abuse, drugs and firearm material.

Unlock the Power of Digital Forensics with Hybrid Cloud

Due to the complexity and volume of digital evidence there is a critical need for transformative innovation. Embracing hybrid cloud technologies combines increased efficiency with improved experience and outcomes today, and into the future.

 

It’s all about the right applications and data in the right place, for the right reasons. Hybrid cloud is a blend of public, private and multi-cloud strategies. Essential operations and large data sets and applications are still housed in the data centre (for security and/or latency reasons), while applications and services that can best live in public cloud are migrated to the public cloud hyperscalers. The result is a seamless experience between public and private infrastructure – the best of both worlds.

 

Gone are the days when police forces would have to purchase 5X – 10X more storage capacity than is required on day one. The way in which IT infrastructure and services is purchased and consumed has changed. Large CAPEX investments are dwindling in favour of pay-per-use consumption models, such as HPE GreenLake. This help remove financial barriers and minimise the risk to technological advancement.  Plus pay-per-use over time, can help free up finances for parallel initiatives and projects.
