Overview
Digital evidence can be easily altered, which is why tracking how a file is handled is vitally important. CaseGuard logs all work performed on your files automatically in the Print Reports section of CaseGuard.
A judge requiring proof that evidence has not been altered further after a user provides the redacted evidence is one example of CaseGuard’s Reports functionality.
The Print Report feature generates printable reports that document key information, such as:
- All file names within a project
- Redactions/Operations/Tasks performed
- Logs displaying when and how files were modified
- Metadata, such as File Size, File Type, Page Count, and more

- Click Metadata to include information about your files’ metadata in the report.
