Exclusive Licensing

UxS Forensics is the only training provider in the digital forensics market with active, ongoing involvement in real-world UxS forensic investigations, exclusive access to licensing for industry-leading forensic platforms during the course, and a suite of proprietary analytical tools developed specifically for uncrewed systems examinations, provided to every student at no additional cost at the conclusion of the course. The program outlined below reflects this unique operational position and delivers capabilities no competing provider can currently replicate.

World Class Training Solutions.

Program Overview

Our training delivers highly specialized instruction in Uncrewed Systems (UxS) digital forensics, exploitation, and investigative methodologies, tailored for law enforcement, intelligence, military, and regulatory professionals. Developed in direct response to the rapidly growing operational need for advanced forensic capabilities, the program addresses the identification, extraction, analysis, and interpretation of digital evidence across the full spectrum of uncrewed platforms, aerial (UAV), ground (UGV), surface (USV), and underwater (UUV). The advanced course begins with a comprehensive foundational overview of the UxS ecosystem, establishing students’ understanding of the technologies, operating systems, communication protocols, storage mechanisms, telemetry structures, and evidentiary considerations associated with modern uncrewed platforms. This grounding prepares investigators for the practical reality of operational examinations, where diverse and unfamiliar systems are routinely encountered.

Complete Solutions for All Your Training Needs.

The combination of operationally active instructors, exclusive platform licensing, internally developed forensic tools, advanced practical instruction, multilingual instructional support, and robust post-course resources positions this program as the most technically comprehensive and operationally grounded UxS forensic training available today. These capabilities are not replicated by other providers, and this proposal represents significant and enduring value to any organization seeking advanced UxS forensic and investigative competency.

Student Material

To maximize the long-term operational value of the training, each student leaves the course with a comprehensive set of resources supporting continued professional development and future examinations. This includes a professionally printed, full-colour training manual, practical exercise datasets, and the proprietary forensic tools used throughout the course.

Exclusive Platform Licensing

UxS Forensics is currently the only training provider authorized and licensed to deliver instruction utilizing DroneTrace and many vendor specific platforms. This exclusive capability gives students direct, guided exposure to industry-leading forensic and investigative technologies unavailable through any competing program. Participants gain practical, hands-on experience with specialized platforms actively used within the digital forensics and law enforcement communities, significantly enhancing the technical depth and operational relevance of the training.

Proprietary Forensic Tools — Included at No Additional Cost

An additional and significant differentiator of this program is the integration of forensic tools developed internally by UxS Forensics, purpose-built for UxS investigations and advanced data analysis. These tools support evidence extraction, parsing, decryption, analysis, and reporting across commercial and custom-built uncrewed platforms and their associated ecosystems. Every student receives these tools at no additional cost, enabling participants to deploy the techniques learned during training immediately within their own operational environments following course completion

Our Instructors are Practitioners, Not Theorists

A defining strength of the training program is its instructional team. Unlike providers that deliver classroom-based instruction developed at arm’s length from operational realities, our instructors are active practitioners who routinely conduct real-world UxS forensic investigations involving commercial, military-derived, custom-built, and modified platforms. All course content

reflects current investigative challenges, emerging platform technologies, and validated forensic methodologies, because it is drawn directly from the work our team performs in the field today.

The instructional teams also include a native English, French, Spanish, Russian and Turkish speaking instructors who provides dedicated support throughout complex technical exercises and investigative workflows. This capability ensures clear communication and comprehension during technically demanding sessions, meaningfully enhancing the learning experience where linguistic nuance intersects with technical precision.

Upcoming Drone Forensics Training Courses

Our advanced level course will equip you with the practical skills and competencies required to identify and extract various sources of data recoverable from Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS), also known as Drones, including their associated control devices in line with approved best practices.

Using leading research and development from Spyder Forensics, this course will introduce you to the world of UAV’s and instruct you how to fly a Drone followed by best practices in conducting forensically sound extractions and analysis of UAS data for use as evidence or intelligence gathering. Attendees will learn how to collect data from within the aircraft using non-destructive processes utilizing industry-standard tools to create forensic collections of storage media that include flight logs, aircraft data, photo, and video files without the need to disassemble the aircraft or controller.  Students will then learn procedures in the acquisition of application data found on the mobile device.

Once data has been acquired, attendees will master how to analyze the flight logs and user data using software originally designed to work with these types of structures, gaining knowledge on workflows to connect data between the drone application and the flight data recovered from the aircraft.

This course uses non-destructive processes to extract and analyze the data from all hardware in the UAS including the handheld device, mobile application, and drone. All software used in class can be used in the DFIR lab free of charge and without the need to purchase additional applications to conduct a Drone examination.

The course will follow adult learning principles through training aids such as presentations, diagrams and practical instructor lead examples.  Each artifact covered will be presented in either one or two 50-minute sessions followed by review questions.  Students will be given the opportunity throughout the course to ask questions and discuss objectives covered in more detail.  Throughout each day students will have practical exercises to work on in order to reinforce the topics.
