Collection

Parallel forensic acquisition across endpoints, mobile, cloud, and messaging.

A single case can mean a phone, a laptop, a cloud account, and a messaging app — each with its own acquisition tool, its own export format, and its own gap in the paper trail. Collected one source at a time, evidence intake alone can stall a case for days before an investigator starts working it.

The Enforcement Gap

The forensic examiner

What The forensic examiner defines

Which sources need to be acquired, in what order, and what has to be documented at each step to keep the chain of custody intact.

Where enforcement breaks down

Each source type usually means a different tool, a different export, and a separate log entry written up after the fact. By the time every source for one case is collected and documented, days have passed, and every manual handoff between tools is a place the chain of custody can be questioned.

How investigators use it

01

A fraud case involves a suspect's laptop, a company email account, and a messaging app used to coordinate. All three are acquired in parallel instead of one after another, and evidence is available to the case the moment collection finishes.

02

A mobile device needs to be imaged before a suspect can wipe it remotely. Acquisition starts immediately, with the hash computed and sealed at the point of collection rather than logged separately afterward.

03

A defense motion questions whether an item of digital evidence was altered between collection and review. The hash computed at acquisition and the log of every step since are pulled directly from the record.

How It Works

1

Acquire

Collect from endpoints, mobile, cloud, and messaging sources at the same time.

2

Seal

Compute and verify a SHA-256 hash at the point of acquisition.

3

Process

20+ AI processing stages run automatically, with no manual staging between tools.

4

Deliver

Processed evidence is available immediately in every other module on the case.

Part of the enforcement platform

Collection doesn't work in isolation. Here's how it connects.

Manage

Collected evidence registers automatically, already linked to its custodian.

Intelligence

Entities extracted during collection populate the intelligence graph without a separate import.

Why OrcheSight

Acquiring a phone, a laptop, a cloud account, and a messaging platform usually means several tools, several exports, and separate log entries written after the fact. Collection runs all of it in parallel, seals each item with a SHA-256 hash the moment it's acquired, and makes the processed evidence available to the rest of the case immediately — documented as it happens, not reconstructed afterward.
