Magnet Forensics Expands to Australia Amidst Rapid Cybersecurity Growth
Magnet Forensics, a leading digital forensics company, has announced its expansion into Australia. This move allows the company to tap into a rapidly growing cybersecurity market, which is seeing a nine per cent annual growth rate. The Australian government has shown strong support for the sector, investing a record AUS$1.67 billion in 2020.
The New South Wales Police Force has recently opened a digital forensics facility to support its cybercrime squad investigators. This development comes as two major Australian police agencies have adopted Magnet Forensics' solutions, Magnet AUTOMATE and Magnet REVIEW. The company's local presence in Australia will enable it to provide better support for the deployment of its solutions in the region.
Magnet Forensics has hired employees in sales and professional services in Australia to facilitate this expansion. The company's Digital Investigation Suite has garnered interest from Australian public safety organizations. Additionally, Australian government agencies, service providers, and enterprises have adopted Magnet AXIOM Cyber for incident response.
Magnet Forensics' entry into the Australian market is a strategic move that aligns with the region's growing demand for digital forensics and cybersecurity solutions. With local support and the adoption of its solutions by major police agencies, the company is well-positioned to make a significant impact in the Asia-Pacific region.
