Israeli experts of electronic surveillance will be showing advanced, stealthy probes designed to covertly monitor and tap voice and data communications without requiring an access to the central exchange or hubs operated by network service providers. Septier Communications has developed such stealth probes enabling intelligence agencies to covertly tap communications networks, complying with ETSI and CALEA 'lawful interception' legal standards. These probes can intercept, process and decode internet traffic at rates up to 25 Gigabit/second. Covertly monitoring broadband networks running over ADSL and VDSL lines is provided by TraceSpan Communications. TraceSpan has recently expanded its Phantom probe family, with the VDSL 'Phantom 3838', passive Lawful Interception (LI) monitoring solution for VDSL2 lines. (read more...) 
In 2008 the Israeli company Cellbrite has launched a range of portable interrogation devices that can transfer, backup, and management the information stored on the phone's memory devices. Data can be extracted even when the original SIM is not available or is locked with the user’s secret PIN. These Universal Forensic Extraction Devices (UFED) have already been fielded with many law enforcement agencies and police departments, and are assisting detectives and field agents with criminal and counter terror investigations investigating, providing forensic evidence for legal prosecution. The hand-held device is designed to extract data from over 2,000 types of handsets, smartphone and PDAs. (read more...)
