Faster Forensic Imaging and Verification

The OpenText TX2 is engineered to help digital investigators reduce acquisition bottlenecks and complete forensic imaging jobs more efficiently. Its advanced verification architecture is designed to improve both performance and confidence during evidence acquisition.

• Parallel hash verification validates data blocks independently instead of relying only on slower sequential verification methods
• Tree hashing processes acquisition data in parallel and then generates a single top-level forensic hash value
• Concurrent imaging and verification help reduce turnaround times for time-sensitive investigations
• Automatic job startup based on available system resources helps optimize throughput
• Manual override options provide added operational control for experienced forensic examiners

These capabilities make the TX2 a strong fit for digital forensic labs, incident response teams, and organizations that need faster, defensible evidence acquisition without sacrificing forensic soundness.
