Signal Isolation Solutions for Digital Evidence Preservation
Blocking Wireless Signals. Preserving Evidential Integrity.
The moment a digital device is seized, it remains exposed to remote wipe commands, network synchronisation and location tracking unless it is properly isolated. We supply the Forward Forensics Shield™ range — purpose-built RF-shielded equipment that blocks wireless signals from the point of seizure through transport, storage and examination.
Cellular networks, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS and NFC all create pathways for a seized device to be remotely accessed, wiped or altered after it leaves a suspect’s hands. Without proper signal isolation, evidence that was perfectly intact at the point of seizure can be compromised before it ever reaches a laboratory.
Our signal isolation equipment is engineered to close that gap. Every product in the Forward Forensics Shield range is built to fully block wireless signals while maintaining the physical integrity and chain of custody of the device inside.
The range covers every stage of the evidence journey — from rapid seizure in the field to secure, long-term storage in the laboratory — so isolation is never interrupted between scene and examination.
The Risk
What Happens If a Device Isn’t Isolated
A single missed signal can undo an entire investigation. Once a seized device reconnects to a network, several things can happen almost instantly:
- Remote wipe or factory-reset commands triggered over a live connection
- Wi-Fi, Bluetooth or NFC pairing altering stored data or timestamps
- Continued cellular connectivity enabling remote access or message deletion
- GPS and location services updating after the point of seizure
- Cloud sync overwriting or altering data held locally on the device
- Chain-of-custody and evidentiary admissibility challenges in court

Built to Perform
Engineered for Every Operational Environment
Every product in the Forward Forensics Shield range shares the same engineering standard, regardless of size or application.
Who It’s For
Trusted Across Evidence-Handling Operations
From first responders securing a device at the scene to laboratory teams managing long-term evidence storage, the Forward Forensics Shield range is trusted across the full spectrum of digital investigation work.
Protection That Doesn’t Stop at the Scene
Signal isolation is only effective if it holds from the first point of contact through to examination. The Forward Forensics Shield range is built to maintain that protection at every stage, so the evidence your team relies on stays exactly as it was found.
