Highlights

Amped Authenticate is a software application for forensic image authentication, tamper detection, and camera traces on digital images

Overview

Amped Authenticate is a software application for forensic image authentication, tampering detection, and camera ballistics on digital images. This product is the only image authentication software on the market that offers a complete suite of powerful tools to exploit the data behind digital images, allowing for the analysis of image integrity, authenticity, metadata, source and history, and detection of tampering prior to its use as intelligence and evidence. With a single product, several tests can be performed to determine if an image has been manipulated as well as verify if a photo was taken from a specific device.

Application

Why Amped Authenticate

Digital images are mines of information: in addition to the visual content, metadata often contain precise information about when, where and who captured the image. But unfortunately, in just a few seconds, both visual content and metadata can now be easily manipulated to create credible fakes.

Amped Authenticate is a software application for forensic image authentication, tamper detection, and camera traces on digital images. This product is the only image validation software on the market that offers a complete set of powerful tools for mining the data behind digital images, enabling analysis of image integrity, authentication, metadata, source and history as well as tamper detection prior to use as intelligence and evidence. With a single product, multiple tests can be performed to determine if a photo has been tampered with and to verify if the photo was taken from a specific device.

Specifications

For digital forensic experts to exploit the data behind digital images. Allowing analysis of image integrity, authenticity, metadata, source and history, and detection of tampering prior to its use as intelligence and evidence.

Without solid ways to validate that the information is accurate, these photographs could pose issues when they are presented as evidence in a case and in court. Therefore, thoroughly investigating an image and ensuring its trustworthiness and source is critical in today’s investigations.

In order to permit more investigators and forensic labs to analyze the processing history of photos, Amped Software has integrated into one single software package, multiple scientific tools, procedures, and reporting, to identify tampering on an image and to verify if a digital photograph has been generated by a specific device. The camera ballistics feature in Amped Authenticate determines that a specific device – and not just the camera make or model – was used to generate a specific photo.

Amped Authenticate Training

This is an intermediate and expert-level course designed for users who are seeking to use Amped Authenticate for their investigations. Students will learn the techniques necessary to perform authentication analysis on digital images in a forensic science setting as well as to package, deliver, and present those findings in court. The course is a mixture of lecture and hands-on. Students will obtain the knowledge and skills required to properly analyze digital images with a workflow compatible with forensic needs and constraints.
