ROCKET VS. SHIPPING HARD DRIVES
Stop Shipping Evidence. Start Collecting It Remotely.
Every hard drive you ship is 48 hours of risk, cost, and chain-of-custody exposure. Rocket collects forensic-grade evidence remotely in under 15 minutes — no couriers, no hardware, no waiting.
OVERVIEW: ZERO-TOUCH REMOTE PRESERVATION VS. PHYSICAL SHIPPING
Zero-Touch Remote Data Preservation vs. Shipping Physical Hard Drives
The Problem: Physical Courier Kits Create Critical Litigation Friction
Transit Delays: Introduces 3 to 5 business days of shipping delay, risking unsatisfied litigation holds.
Custodian Downtime: Forces target employees fully offline, disrupting core business operations.
Spoliation Exposure: Physical drives are vulnerable to loss, shock, and magnetic damage during shipping—exposing teams to legal spoliation risks under FRE 901.
High Costs: Hardware, courier fees, customs, and technician hours routinely exceed $1,200 per custodian.
The Solution: Over-the-Air Logical Extractions
Instant Remote Trigger: Collections start immediately via a single secure activation link encrypted over TLS 1.3.
Zero-Footprint Architecture: Executes agentlessly in-memory without persistent software installs, satisfying strict enterprise security policies.
Forensic-Grade Outputs: Captures bit-level E01 imaging for Windows endpoints and iTunes-compatible logical images for iOS devices.
Direct Cloud Ingestion: Streams evidence straight into your designated AWS S3 environment, eliminating intermediary storage risks.
Cryptographic Integrity & Court Admissibility
Dual-Stage SHA-256 Hashing: Calculates $H = \text{SHA-256}(M)$ at initial capture and final delivery to produce immutable proof of non-alteration.
Tamper-Evident Audit Trail: Automatic hash verification immediately flags post-collection modifications or spoliation attempts.
Federal Admissibility: Fully satisfies Federal Rules of Evidence 901(b)(9) and the Sedona Principles governing electronic discovery.

TECHNICAL INTEGRITY
Built to Survive Cross-Examination
Every collection Rocket performs is independently verifiable end to end. Nothing here relies on trust — it relies on math, timestamps, and a direct pipeline to your evidence store.
Dual-Pass SHA-256 Hash Validation
Every acquisition is hashed twice — once at capture, once at rest — and both values must match exactly for the collection to be marked complete.
Direct AWS S3 Streaming
Evidence streams directly into your private AWS S3 environment as it’s collected — no intermediate storage, no local caching, no extra custody links.
Tamper-Evident Audit Logs
Every event in the collection lifecycle is cryptographically timestamped and hash-chained the moment it occurs, producing a tamper-evident audit trail that flags any modification after the fact.
