WHAT WE DO
Medex Forensics (Medex) develops and deploys digital forensic technology to identify child predators, fight digital crime, and combat disinformation. Medex is pioneering digital file format forensics – deploying forensic parsing and analysis at the file format domain to comprehensively extract all existing data from digital files based on their binary structure while leveraging that structure to introduce automated intelligence related to the provenance and authenticity of the files themselves.
We offer software as a service, as well as training and expert forensic services to increase our clients’ capacity to know everything there is to know about a given digital file.
WHY WE ARE UNIQUE
Commencing with technology supporting digital video files, Medex brings patented analytical methods to the digital forensics community. Our Medex Video Authentication Platform helps our colleagues and clients determine the trustworthiness of digital evidence and to know when a video has been edited or modified, and to recognize original camera video from synthetically produced media.
Unlike any other software, Medex reveals information that is not present in the metadata of a digital video file. With this additional intelligence, investigators are answering new questions about video and identifying additional crimes and perpetrators in previously impossible ways.
OUR TECHNOLOGY
The Medex Video Authentication Platform’s strengths lay in its speed, ease-of-use, potential for investigative leads, and ability to identify modification and validation errors in video files. We offer both a SaaS solution and an On-premise solution that are low overhead and commitment for organizations to license and try the technology themselves.
Medex offers law enforcement professionals, journalists, lawyers, forensic examiners, and intelligence analysts a first-ever forensic toolset to automatically inspect a video file, identify the camera that created it, identify any software that was used to edit it, and report modifications that were made to the file. Our users in federal, state, county, and private agencies are already employing Medex to solve child exploitation video production cases, to validate body worn camera video for court, and to disprove disinformation videos (e.g., deepfakes, synthetic media, and generative AI).

Medex Forensics has made our authentication workflow stronger. The database has alleviated questions we normally had difficulty answering in gaining access to a specific device for verification thanks to the large database we now have access to. The tool is affordable and makes video authentication simple and quick. The team at Medex is also incredible at fulfilling advanced analysis requests efficiently and effectively when the data is difficult for a forensic technician to understand. Look no further for the best video authentication and analysis tool on the market, backed by superior customer service from industry leading experts in forensic video analysis. As a forensic video analyst inside the courtroom and A&E networks, Medex has streamlined my firms workflow.
