What is Field Search?

Developed by the National Law Enforcement and Corrections Technology Center, the Field Search software suite of products was designed specifically for use in the field by non-technical criminal justice personnel to quickly and efficiently search an offender's computer and create a detailed report of their findings.

However, with the conclusion of the Justice Technology Information Program in 2019, the Field Search software is no longer distributed or supported. For more information on the National Institute of Justice's (NIJ’s) current research in digital evidence, please see the Digital Evidence and Forensics page on the NIJ website.
