Bullrich Unveils 50 UFED Units to Speed Phone Forensics in Major Cases

Officials say the purchase replaces expired tools and delivers a 150% capacity jump.

Overview

  • Thirty new Cellebrite–Inseyets systems were added to 20 already in service, bringing the fleet to 50 across the Policía Federal and federal investigative departments.
  • A live demonstration in Buenos Aires showed the equipment in operation, with formal handover to the forces set to follow.
  • The tools are designed to unlock iOS and Android devices and to extract, decode, analyze, automate and classify mobile data for criminal probes.
  • The ministry frames the upgrade as accelerating investigations and judicial processes while modernizing forensic capabilities that had lapsed with expired licenses.
  • Officials say the expansion could raise the volume of recoverable data by about 60%, and Bullrich also confirmed she will run for the Senate with La Libertad Avanza.
