Platform

The Digital Asset Discovery, Audit & Governance Platform.

Five capabilities on one record: discover the assets in your data, inventory them, secure the keys, monitor activity, and prove it all to an auditor.

01 // How the platform fits together
CATLABS · 01

Every asset follows one lifecycle.

Most institutions stitch this together from forensic exports, spreadsheets and shared drives. CAT Labs keeps one record from first find to final audit.

01Discover

Find private keys, seed phrases and wallet artifacts inside forensic images, devices, cloud data and documents.

02Inventory

Record every find with its source evidence, type, chain and value, on one ledger of who saw and handled it.

03Secure

Move key material out of case folders into threshold-encrypted custody that no single person can open.

04Monitor

Watch every wallet tied to a case for movement, deposits and exposure, before and after seizure.

05Audit

Produce the custody, access and inventory records that auditors, Inspectors General and courts ask for.

02 // Discover
CATLABS · 02

Digital asset discovery.

The discovery engine scans authorized data for the material that controls digital assets, then confirms what each find is and what it controls.

  • Private keys, seed and recovery phrases, key shares and wallet files
  • Software, browser and hardware wallet artifacts, addresses, QR codes and exchange records
  • Forensic images (E01, AFF4, FileVault-locked APFS), Cellebrite UFDR and Magnet AXIOM portable cases
  • Email and cloud warrant returns, documents, spreadsheets, chats and images
  • On-device OCR and vision models for keys in screenshots, photos and handwriting
  • Checksum validation, address derivation, missing-word reconstruction and live balance checks where supported
  • Decryption of browser stores, keychains and supported wallets
03 // Inventory
CATLABS · 03

Digital asset inventory.

Every find becomes an inventory record tied to its source evidence, not a line in a case note.

  • Provenance: the evidence item, file and location each find came from
  • Classification by artifact type, chain and wallet
  • A private-key-material ledger of who saw, exported or derived each key
  • Portable case export for investigators and prosecutors
  • Centralized, agency-wide inventory across cases and sites
  • Custody and ownership records with policy-based governance
04 // Secure
CATLABS · 04

Cryptographic security and custody.

Key material leaves workstations and shared folders for custody that no single person can open or move.

  • Lattice-based threshold encryption, designed to resist quantum attacks
  • Separation of powers: transfer approval and seed access are held by different people
  • m-of-n approvals bound to each transaction, with stricter rules for external destinations
  • Independent transaction decoding and an air-gapped signer
  • Key backup and controlled recovery for lost devices or staff changes
  • Immutable custody records
05 // Monitor
CATLABS · 05

Monitoring and risk management.

Assets tied to a case are watched whether or not they have been seized, so movement is on the record even when it cannot be stopped.

  • Balance at the date of seizure, and everything received and sent since
  • Authority gating: seizure actions unlock only when legal authority is in force
  • Monitoring of seized, pending and unseized wallets
  • Continuous reconciliation of every custody wallet
  • Critical alerts for unauthorized movement, new deposits and dissipation
  • Key exposure and custody exception tracking
06 // Audit
CATLABS · 06

Governance, audit and reporting.

The records an auditor, Inspector General or court asks for, produced from the same ledger the work runs on.

  • Access and custody logs for every key
  • Annual digital asset inventory and audit reports
  • Exception and corrective-action tracking
  • Reporting aligned to emerging federal requirements
07 // Deployment & integration
CATLABS · 07

Deploys inside your boundary.

Deployment

Where it runs

On premises, fully air-gapped, or in AWS GovCloud and Azure Government. Data stays in your environment.

Forensic workflow

What it reads

Output from Cellebrite, Magnet AXIOM, FTK and standard forensic images. CAT Labs adds a pass; it does not replace your tools.

Systems

What it connects to

Portable case export today. Integration with case management and analytics platforms, including Palantir Foundry, is in development.

08 // FAQ
CATLABS · 08

Questions institutions ask first.

Can we start with one capability?

Yes. Most agencies start with discovery and inventory in Recovery CAT, then add custody and monitoring as their program matures.

What is available today?

Ask for the current release notes in a briefing. We walk through what is deployed today and what is on the roadmap.

Does the platform expand what we can search?

No. CAT Labs works only on data you are already authorized to hold and review.

Platform briefing

Map the platform to your data.

We will walk through your sources, your custody process and the reports you owe, and scope a pilot in your environment.
