View emails in threads in Email Explorer
In our prior release of Axiom Cyber, we added the ability to review large volumes of emails in Email Explorer by grouping them into threads. Viewing emails in context—as a conversation—makes reviewing more efficient and seamless, helping you identify responsive content faster.
With this release, we added Cloud Outlook Mail to the inbox types that can viewed as an email thread. The complete list of inbox types that can be viewed as threads is now:
- Outlook emails (Windows)
- Cloud Gmail messages
- Gmail emails (Android and iOS)
- *NEW* Cloud Outlook Mail
Threading in Email Explorer is an optional setting. You can choose to view emails individually if preferred.
To learn more about Email Explorer, and how to use it in support of criminal, incident response, eDiscovery, and internal investigations, check out the blog post “Reviewing email evidence with Email Explorer in Magnet Axiom and Axiom Cyber.”
Share evidence to Magnet Review from Axiom Process
Enabling timely and effective sharing of digital evidence is vital to keeping your investigations moving. As part of Axiom Cyber 8.9, we’ve added the ability to automatically share evidence to a cloud-based Magnet Review from Axiom Process as it is being processed.
With this latest integration you can add data to new or existing Magnet Review cases and the data can be shared with your stakeholders directly from Axiom Cyber, either as it begins to populate in Review or when all the data transfer has been completed. Once shared, you can start work on the case in Axiom Cyber while your stakeholders are reviewing evidence using Review’s intuitive user interface with powerful search tools. Magnet Review provides your stakeholders with the ability to easily collaborate on the case adding tags and comments from any web browser—no special hardware or software is required.

New Magnet Idea Lab Beta—Event Snapshots in Magnet Axiom Cyber
With the overwhelming volume of data in a case, knowing where to start can be a persistent challenge no matter the type of investigation—whether it’s employee exits, IP theft, fraud, or supporting eDiscovery. We are providing early access via the Magnet Idea Lab to an upcoming Axiom Cyber feature, Event Snapshots, that helps focus investigations on the digital events surrounding an incident.
Event Snapshots helps you to save time by narrowing the investigative scope with a new interface that provides clear insights at-a-glance, helping investigative teams quickly uncover key evidence. The results of Event Snapshots can easily be shared in a small Axiom Portable Case file that can quickly and easily be opened and reviewed by investigators and prosecutors.
