ADF Solutions' New Triage-ID(R) 2.0 Forensic Software Speeds
Time-to-Conviction in Child Pornography Cases

BETHESDA, Md., May 27 /PRNewswire/ -- ADF Solutions, Inc. the leading provider
of forensic triage tools for computers and peripherals, announced today the
release of Triage-ID 2.0, the next generation of its widely deployed forensic
triage software. This software is deployed in both field and lab
investigations of computers and is used to identify high-value evidence in a
matter of minutes - thereby eliminating the long forensic backlogs that many
investigators face today, while helping to speed time-to-conviction in child
pornography cases.

In the United Kingdom, Nottinghamshire Police have successfully leveraged the
software to secure a conviction in less than 7 weeks - a process that
otherwise has taken up to 18 months.  The speed of this conviction sets a
record in the UK for the prosecution of the possession of abusive and indecent
images of children.  In the first 3 months after adopting Triage-ID,
Nottinghamshire Police also reported a 20% drop in their forensic backlog, and
this backlog has continued to decline significantly since then. Other agencies
in the United Kingdom, United States, Australia, and Europe have reported
similar results.

Triage-ID is forensically sound and has been used by both technical and
non-technical professionals, including field detectives, forensic examiners,
intelligence operatives, and e-discovery experts. 

"The traditional forensics approach to examining all computers worked well
enough when overall hard drive capacities were much smaller. But in today's
world of terabyte storage and nearly endless multimedia applications, this
approach has led to severe forensic backlogs," said J.J. Wallia, CEO and
co-founder of ADF Solutions.  "As a result, criminals who should be behind
bars have been allowed to continue to walk the streets.  Unfortunately, until
we deploy effective triage procedures and reduce forensic backlogs, this
situation will only get worse."

Critical to the success of the Triage-ID software is its intelligent search
technologies, which include the patent-pending SearchPak(R) and advanced
image-matching technologies.   These technologies have proven capable of
rapidly identifying unknown child exploitation images and other conclusive
evidence on suspect computers, thus leading to confessions and quicker
convictions for many child exploitation cases.

Key new developments in the Triage-ID software include a user-friendly
graphical interface to view evidence directly on suspect computer(s),
one-click setup for non-technical users to deploy triage scans, and the
ability to image the suspect hard drive directly from the Triage-ID software.

Triage-ID is integrated into the 2-day Digital First Responder(R) training
program offered by ADF Solutions and its partners worldwide.  The software is
currently integrated into law enforcement training programs in the United
States, United Kingdom, Europe, and Australia.
