Forensic technology refers to the scientific system of investigating, searching, retrieving and analyzing the evidence gathered from the site of crime. The technology enables the user to collect information to address investigations, litigation issues, regulatory and financial crime requirements. Numerous procedures and equipment, such as data examination and charting tools, record management systems (RMS), closed circuit televisions (CCTV), license plate recognition (LPR) systems and DNA confirmation equipment, are used to conduct forensic investigations. In recent years, advanced technologies, such as alternative light photography that uses blue and orange light filters to determine the extent of damage on the skin, along with facial reconstruction and drug testing, are also widely used as a part of forensic investigation.

An alarmingly increasing crime rate is one of the key factors driving the market growth. Furthermore, the sophistication and finesse in the crimes committed are further contributing to the high demand for advanced forensic technologies for investigating and solving cases across various industries, including banking, healthcare and telecommunications. Also, the rising prevalence of cybercrimes has provided a boost to digital forensic technologies that are utilized for responding to incidents of procurement fraud, white-collar crimes and IP infringement. Cybercrime experts use a technology-based approach for data preservation, document control, data recovery and analysis. Additionally, rapid development in DNA testing technology is also creating a positive outlook for the market. Owing to advantages such as high accuracy, investigator’s compliance and greater reproducibility, procedures such as DNA sequencing, magnetic fingerprinting, facial reconstruction and integrated ballistic systems are widely being adopted. Moreover, the implementation of favorable government policies and funding to support forensic research and development (R&D) are also expected to positively impact the industry growth.
