Forensic Soundness
The suite access devices using advanced proprietary protocols. Some devices like smartphones require an Agent installation. Of course, installing software onto the device being examined will impact the forensic soundness of the investigation. If such information is not obtainable by other means and the impact is documented, it may still be admissible under the Best Evidence Rule.
