PRESS RELEASE

FRISCO, Texas — February 18, 2025 – Exterro, Inc., the leading provider of data risk management software solutions for e-discovery, digital forensics, and data privacy, security, and governance professionals, today announced its latest industry-shaping innovation – Exterro Remote Mobile Discovery. This patent-pending addition to the Exterro software platform breaks the barriers faced by internal investigation experts by powering secure, non-intrusive data preview and collection of remote mobile device data for critical digital forensic and e-discovery workflows.

Historically, most remote data collection solutions were more complex than the problem – requiring organizations to physically gather or travel to retrieve remote devices, attach physical cables or collection kits at the time of collection, and then re-ship devices back to the users. With Exterro Remote Mobile Discovery, Legal, IT, and forensic investigation teams can initiate remote collections with a few simple clicks in the Exterro Data Risk Management platform.

Once the collection is complete, digital forensic investigators and e-discovery teams can review the remotely collect mobile data alongside other relevant information collected from other data sources in Exterro’s FTK Suite or its E-Discovery Data Management (EDDM) module, Exterro’s purpose-built legal document review solution. Exterro’s platform capabilities provide users with the ability to view all the evidence in an investigation in one place, saving time and getting to the facts faster by eliminating the need for data transfers or multiple review solutions.
