UFED is the name most examiners know for Cellebrite's phone extraction tool. Today it continues as the access and extraction part of the Inseyets suite.

Inseyets is Cellebrite's current flagship for mobile evidence. It puts the extraction side (Inseyets.UFED) and the decoding side (Inseyets.PA) under one name and one licence.

Physical Analyzer is the decoding and analysis side of Cellebrite's mobile workflow. PA 7 is being discontinued and the database-backed PA Ultra has become Inseyets.PA 10.x.

Premium is Cellebrite's advanced access capability for locked and encrypted handsets. Cellebrite has said the Premium name is going away as its capabilities are folded into Inseyets.

UFED Cloud is Cellebrite's component for collecting data from cloud services tied to a device, using tokens found on the phone or credentials provided under legal authority. Cellebrite now ships this inside Inseyets.PA.

Cellebrite Reader is a free, portable viewer for UFDR files, the report format produced by Physical Analyzer and Inseyets. It lets people outside the lab review the evidence without a licence.

Pathfinder is Cellebrite's analytics layer. It takes the output of many extractions and other data sources and lets a case team search, link and visualise them together, on a server the agency controls or in a cloud environment.

XRY is MSAB's mobile data extraction software, sold as a family of modules and delivered on office, field, kiosk and tablet platforms. Its output is analysed in XAMN and managed through XEC.

XRY Pro is the advanced tier of the XRY family, aimed at locked and encrypted devices that standard modules cannot reach. MSAB restricts it to practitioners who hold a current XRY certification.

XAMN is where an XRY extraction becomes readable evidence. MSAB sells XAMN Pro for analysis and gives away XAMN Viewer so that others in the case team can open the same files.

XEC is MSAB's Manage line. XEC Director connects every XRY installation in an organisation into one network for oversight and updates, while XEC Export batch-exports XRY files.

Oxygen Forensic Detective is an all-in-one extraction and analysis tool for phones, cloud accounts, drones and other connected devices. On 2 November 2026 the maker's website could not be checked, so this profile is marked unverified.

Compelson now sells its phone forensics tool as MOBILedit Forensic. The Forensic Express name survives only in old web addresses. The product comes in editions, from a single-phone licence to the ULTRA edition that the maker classes as a dual-use item.

Graykey is Magnet Forensics' device access product for locked iOS and Android handsets. Magnet sells it only to public safety agencies in selected countries and vets every enquiry through an agency email address.

Magnet ACQUIRE was Magnet Forensics' free acquisition tool for Android and iOS devices, later extended to computers. It no longer appears on Magnet's product or free tools pages. Its acquisition engine now lives inside Magnet Axiom.
