Magnet Forensics logo

Magnet Graykey is a mobile forensics solution designed to help investigators lawfully access and extract data from leading iOS and Android devices. It is built for cases where critical evidence is locked, encrypted, or otherwise difficult to obtain through standard mobile acquisition methods.

Magnet highlights Graykey for fast access, often the same day and often in less than one hour, along with support for extracting from devices regardless of state. It also supports credential-store access such as Keychain and Keystore, category-based extractions for limited-scope collections, and deeper mobile extraction including deleted and hard-to-reach data.

Graykey is strongest when the main problem is mobile access and extraction speed. It is not a general-purpose computer forensics suite or a cloud-investigation platform; it is a purpose-built mobile access and extraction product.

 Magnet Graykey is a paid Magnet Forensics mobile-forensics hardware product built to lawfully access and extract data from locked or otherwise hard-to-access iOS and Android devices, with speed and depth being its main value.
