Digital Evidence Management System

Every Format, Every Source, One Chain of Custody

Evidence arrives from body cameras, cruisers, CCTV, phones and the public, in formats no single vendor made. A digital evidence management system takes all of it, proves nothing changed, and hands the case over intact.

How It Works

From intake to courtroom

01

Take it in, whatever made it

Body-worn and in-car cameras, CCTV exports, interview rooms, phones, drones and citizen upload links. 300+ formats ingest as they are, with proprietary CCTV containers rewrapped rather than converted.

02

Let AI work the case

Transcription, object and face detection, licence plate reading and OCR run on arrival. Ask questions across the whole case file and get answers cited to the timestamp they came from.

03

Redact, disclose, defend

Redaction carries its exemption code, disclosure packages go out to prosecution, defence and the public, and every action is on a record that holds up when it is challenged.

What You Get

What an unbroken chain buys you

Nothing is locked to one vendor's hardware

Evidence stays as it arrived, and any camera estate feeds it. Changing a camera contract never means changing the evidence system.

300+ formatsAny BWC or CCTVNo proprietary containers

Find it across everything you hold

One query reads what was said, what was written and what was seen, and returns only what the person asking may open.

Keyword and semanticTranscripts and OCRPermission-trimmed

Answers from the evidence, not a search box

Ask a question across a whole case and get an answer that points at where it came from, including discrepancies between interviews.

Cited answersCross-interview analysisTimeline view

Storage that holds a growing estate

Footage nobody has opened in three years stops costing what last week's does, moved on schedule rather than by hand.

Hot cool and archive tiersPolicy or bulk movesRehydrate on access

Disclosure at case scale, not clip by clip

A month of requests runs as an overnight queue instead of staff weekends, and every removal is logged as it is made.

Retention that runs itself

Content ages out on schedule without anyone remembering, and freezes the moment a matter opens.

Policy-driven dispositionLegal holdPer evidence type

Sharing that replaces the disc

Prosecution, defence, partner agencies and the public get what they are entitled to without a courier bag, and can send evidence back.

A portal per party, one administration

Each audience gets its own space, branding and security rules, run centrally from one deployment.

Multi-portalPer-portal policyCross-agency sharing

Compliant, provable, deployed where policy says

Integrity is provable per file, the audit trail cannot be rewritten, and the whole system runs disconnected if that is the requirement.

Who It's For

Built for the agencies that have to prove it

The rules change with the jurisdiction; the obligation does not. Take in evidence from any source, prove it never changed, share it with the people entitled to see it, and produce the record when a defence attorney asks how it was handled. Agencies running body cameras get bulk video redaction; agencies with decades of case files get OCR and search that finds what is responsive.

FAQ

Digital evidence management, asked and answered

What is a digital evidence management system?

A system that ingests digital evidence from every source an agency holds, stores it under access control and retention policy, records an unbroken chain of custody, and produces disclosure packages. It replaces shared drives, disc burning and per-vendor evidence portals with one repository.

Does it work with cameras we already own?

Yes. It is vendor-agnostic by design: body-worn and in-car cameras, CCTV, interview room systems and forensic tools from Axon, Motorola, Panasonic, Genetec, Milestone, Utility and others. Evidence is stored in its original format, so there is no lock-in to reverse later.

How is chain of custody proven?

A SHA-384 hash is recorded at ingest and verified on demand against that value. Audit logs cannot be edited or deleted, WORM storage is available for records that must not change, and every access, download and change is recorded against the file.

Can it meet CJIS and FedRAMP requirements?

Deployments are CJIS Security Policy-aligned and can run on FedRAMP High-authorized infrastructure, either a partner's authorized environment or Azure Government with agency sponsorship. VIDIZMO holds no independent FedRAMP authorization. FIPS 140-3 validated cryptographic modules are used on supported infrastructure.

Can it run disconnected?

Yes. It deploys as shared or dedicated SaaS, into your own cloud subscription, on-premises, hybrid, or fully air-gapped. In air-gapped deployments the AI stack runs entirely on local models.

How does redaction fit in?

Redaction is licensed as Redactor on the same platform, so it works on the same library, under the same permissions, and writes into the same audit trail. A redaction is part of the record rather than an event in a separate tool.
