LLM tech shifts forensics work from front-end to back-end — the equation always requires balancing. Any shortcut in the forensic process carries serious consequences. Speed without care is just recklessness. Now is the time to develop policies, plan resource allocations, and ensure the human element is never outsourced. #DigitalForensics #MobileForensics #DFIR #LLM #AI

Coming to a department, lab, or office near you.

Let's be clear, LLM technology takes the work performed at the front end of our forensics process and places it at the back end. There is no free lunch and the promise of speed if you buy an LLM product is no exception. If you affect one side if the process the other side will be just as affected. The equation always requires balancing.

Never forget that any shortcut in the forensic process will carry serious consequences. Speed without care is just recklessness.

Now is the time to develop policies, plan resource allocations, and make sure that the human element is never outsourced.
