  • Cellebrite (CLBT, Financial) enhances its digital forensics software with NCMEC's data integration.
  • The integration includes around 10 million confirmed CSAM files, accelerating investigation times.
  • General availability is set for June 30, 2025, with early access for Design Partners.

Cellebrite (CLBT), a leader in digital investigative solutions, has announced a significant enhancement to its Cellebrite Inseyets software through the integration of the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children's (NCMEC) CyberTipline hash value list. This integration will allow law enforcement agencies worldwide to instantly match child sexual abuse material (CSAM) files against a database of approximately 10 million confirmed instances.

This development is seen as a major step forward in the fight against child exploitation, enabling investigators to match CSAM files instantly and reduce the need for manual data reviews. As a result, investigators can gather necessary evidence more swiftly, facilitating quicker arrests and prosecution of offenders while protecting the mental well-being of law enforcement personnel from prolonged exposure to disturbing content.

Cellebrite's integration, part of their "Operation Find Them All" (OFTA) initiative launched in January 2024, aims to bolster efforts to track down and rescue victims, having already helped in the rescue of hundreds of victims and the arrest of numerous perpetrators. The integration, initially available to Cellebrite Design Partners, will be open to all users starting the week of June 30, 2025.

The partnership and integration have been well-received by Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force Commanders, who see it as a critical tool in enhancing the speed and effectiveness of digital evidence gathering, thus improving public safety efforts. This collaboration strengthens Cellebrite's position in the digital forensics market, emphasizing its commitment to using technology to protect vulnerable populations.
