Cyber Innovation Series 2021/22: OSIRT

Posted on: 15/02/2022

Next in our Cyber Innovation Series, featuring the final academic teams currently on CyberASAP, we hone in on OSIRT – an all-in-one, comprehensive toolset for law enforcement officers to conduct online investigations. 

See them all in action – register here for Demo Day.

About OSIRT

Online investigations can require disparate tools that vary in price and quality, this, mixed with often varied skillsets of cyber operators, can lead to issues surrounding the capture of online artefacts. A lack of standardisation and rigour for online investigations risks case integrity. 

OSIRT is a unique, comprehensive toolset with built-in tools for complete artefact capture which include: screenshots, video and complete webpage downloads; automatic logging of actions with time and date stamp in the OSIRT case file; plus export options for reports. These capabilities make OSIRT a robust and standardised approach to online investigations for everyone.  

Since 2015, OSIRT has had over 50,000 downloads as a free tool. OSIRT is now looking to migrate to a ‘freemium’ model with paid-for support packages and additional tools.

The OSIRT team

Designed with direct feedback from frontline law enforcement, and trained at the College of Policing, OSIRT was invented by Joseph Williams, Senior Lecturer in Computer Science at the University of Hertfordshire
