Source preservation
Acquisition and source boundaries stay visible through the workflow, so an examiner can always point to where a fact originated.
Solutions
Forensic work with explicit provenance.
Infrastructure for acquisition context, evidence continuity, recovery, reconstruction, verification and review preparation without turning tools into factual authority.
Digital forensics infrastructure
Forensic tooling earns trust by stating its limits, not by overstating its reach. This infrastructure keeps acquisition context, continuity, recovery and verification explicit — and records what a system cannot establish alongside what it can process.
Recovery
Damaged or transitional state is reconstructed through Lazarus-style evidence discipline, where recovered material must earn promotion rather than being trusted on sight.
Verification
Blackbox Systems and Trident Noir rails preserve reviewable technical state, so a finding can be reproduced instead of asserted.
Stated limitations
The system records what it cannot establish, not merely what it can process — the difference between a defensible report and an overreaching one.
Current Evidence
Acquisition, source and release boundaries remain distinguishable end to end.
Technical state is preserved so a result can be reproduced by another examiner.
What the system cannot establish is stated, not implied.
Proof
A report you can defend on cross-examination.
Forensic output carries its provenance and its limits together, so review turns on evidence rather than on trust in the tool. Nothing here is presented as a legal conclusion.
