Side-by-side Evidence Analysis - Open multiple BlackLight window instances to simultaneously analyze and compare related evidence. Consolidated Search and File Filter Tool - Pinpoint important evidence by applying advanced file filters to keyword searches.

Secure USB Key Authorization - Zero-storage USB license key option to meet high-security environment needs. iOS 6 and Mountain Lion Compatibility - Comprehensive iOS 6 and OS 10.8.2 Mountain Lion support and platform integration. "BlackLight recently reached its two-year anniversary, and we are thrilled with how far the product has come in such a short period of time," said Paul Jordan, Vice President of Corporate Development. "This release includes significant data import and processing speed improvements, and several new Mac OS X and iOS forensic analysis tools that uncover key social media evidence common to current-day digital forensic investigations." The BlackLight 2012 R4 Mac OS X and iOS analysis tools are now integrated, so investigators may use the same toolset to examine evidence regardless of device type or operating system. "I am particularly excited about the Time Machine support included in this release," said Derrick Donnelly, Chief Technology Officer. "Not all cases involve Time Machine backup evidence, but when they do, the recovered evidence is usually quite relevant to the investigation. Until now, importing Time Machine backup files and resolving associated hard links has been painfully complicated. BlackLight 2012 R4 simplifies this process." BlackLight was developed by leading Mac OS X and iOS forensic analysts as a comprehensive forensics software tool to help investigators conduct digital forensic examinations on Mac OS X computers, and iPhone and iPad devices. BlackLight(TM) is designed with both novice and advanced users in mind, and features a clean interface, easy navigation, and powerful advanced options. The BlackLight graphical user interface (GUI) was specifically designed to provide forensic examiners with robust capabilities and an intuitive and elegant user experience throughout all phases of a digital forensic investigation.
