IPED Digital Forensic Tool
What is it?

IPED is a tool developed by digital forensics experts from the Brazilian Federal Police since 2012, designed to process and analyze digital evidence, often seized at crime scenes. It is compatible with multiple platforms and can be operated from removable devices without installation. This tool was developed with the aim of offering efficient and stable data processing. It is shared publicly to improve forensic analysis capabilities in various jurisdictions, facilitating case creation and indexing of large volumes of data with an intuitive interface.

What problems does it solve?

IPED Digital Forensic Tool addresses the challenge of processing and analyzing large volumes of digital evidence efficiently. It offers robust solutions to forensic professionals, allowing detailed analyses in reduced time, with support for cases of up to 135 million items.

How does the tool work?

IPED is an open-source tool for processing and analyzing digital evidence. It works via command-line data processing, supports multiple platforms, and offers an intuitive analysis interface. Its high multithreading performance allows for rapid processing of large volumes of data.

Open standards

IPED processes forensic images in RAW/DD, E01, ISO-9660, AFF, VHD, and VMDK formats, all publicly documented. By supporting these open specifications, the evidence remains intact and compatible with Autopsy, Sleuth Kit, and other suites, avoiding proprietary locks in the digital chain of custody.
