Key Features

Metadata Forensics

Inspects document metadata (creation/modification timestamps, author history, producer/software fingerprints) to surface inconsistencies pointing to post-creation edits.

Content & Layer Analysis

Detects spliced or overlaid text, mismatched fonts, misaligned baselines, and re-rendered regions using layout and error-level image analysis.

Digital Signature Verification

Validates embedded digital signatures and certificate chains, flagging revoked, expired, or self-signed certificates and signature-scope mismatches.

Forensic Tampering Report

Generates a structured, evidence-grade report with clear indicators of manipulation (IOMs) for legal review or internal escalation.
