Software
Built in Close Partnership with Law Enforcement and Defense Agencies
Bagshot,
April 9, 2003 - ZyLAB, a developer of document imaging and full-text
retrieval software, today unveiled ZyIMAGE Investigate, a records
management solution built specifically for the security, intelligence,
and law enforcement industries. During the past two years, this
solution was developed in close cooperation with ZyLAB customers
such as the United Nations War Crimes Tribunal, several classified
defense organizations and a variety of local and federal law enforcement
agencies.
"During an investigation
process, huge amounts of data are collected and must provide investigative
teams the ability to find and cross-reference specific bits of information
among the collected data," said Johannes Scholtes, president
of ZyLAB North America, LLC. "Often times, the collected data
appears in various languages, in all types of formats, and needs
to be manually reviewed and organized. This presents a time-consuming,
inefficient, and often inaccurate way to manage investigative data.
ZyIMAGE Investigate is uniquely designed to combat these issues
in records management by providing an integrated records management
and archival solution for end users."
ZyIMAGE Investigate enables law enforcement, security, and intelligence
users to perform the following key functions:
- Access all relevant
paper, electronic, and e-mail documents from a single point, which
assures that information is not missed
- Improve the efficiency
of investigative team by using the advance full-text retrieval
- Easily export or print
all relevant information to share with other parties
- Find results and conclusions
faster
- Search documents in
over 90 languages, including Arabic, Farsi and Russian
- Log activity (ZyIMAGE
Investigate is 100% auditable)
"ZyIMAGE Investigate
creates transparency in data collections, enabling stored information
to be retrieved in just a few seconds," said Teele Horstra,
vice president of Business Development, ZyLAB North America, LLC.
"A vital role in the law enforcement industry is to have fast
and easy access to information across all systems. ZyIMAGE Investigate
provides immediate access to this information and improves efficiency
by using advanced search techniques."
For the past 10 years,
the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has utilized, and continues
to use, ZyLAB software with investigations such as the ongoing Enron
case, the Oklahoma City and Atlanta bombings, and the 9-11 tragedy.
Other users include the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS),
the US Armed Forces, US Department of Defense (DoD), and United
Nations War Crimes Tribunal prosecution team.
