A file is not evidence. Not until it is certified.
Photos, videos, documents and messages decide claims, contracts and rulings every day. All of them can be edited, regenerated or simply denied. Certification is what turns a file into a fact that holds when someone contests it.
In a dispute: your word against theirs
In a dispute: evidence with legal value
Uncertified data has a price. It is just paid later.
The moment content is questioned is the moment it stops working: too late to go back and prove where it came from.
Fraud you cannot disprove
Altered invoices, staged damages, screenshots built to look real. When origin cannot be proven, the burden of doubt lands on the side that acted in good faith.
Disputes decided by opinion
If a file can be questioned, the case turns on who sounds more convincing rather than on what actually happened. Months of work, and an outcome you do not control.
Trust that does not come back
One piece of content exposed as manipulated is enough to put everything else you produced under review: past reports, past claims, past decisions.
What makes digital data hold up
Not every copy, backup or hash counts as evidence. ISO/IEC 27037 is the international standard for handling digital evidence, and it sets four requirements that have to be met together.
The content represents the event exactly as it happened, with a verifiable origin.
Nothing has changed since the moment of capture, and any change would be evident.
Every step, from acquisition to storage, is documented and can be reconstructed.
The result is suitable to be accepted and used in legal proceedings.
Meeting one of the four is not enough: a timestamp without forensic acquisition, or an archive without a chain of custody, still leaves room to contest. TrueScreen is the only patented solution fully compliant with ISO/IEC 27037, so every capture satisfies all four requirements by design.
What gets sealed, at the moment of capture
The seal is applied where the content is created, before anyone can touch it: not after the upload, not on a copy, not on a file that has already travelled.
That is the difference between storing a file and holding evidence.
What can be certified
Certification is content agnostic: what matters is how the data is acquired, not what kind of data it is.
Each item is acquired, verified and sealed in real time, then preserved: authentic when it was created, and still provably authentic years later.
Where certification changes the outcome
Legal and forensic
Chats, emails and web content that survive cross examination instead of being dismissed as screenshots.
Insurance and claims
Damage documented at the scene, with time and place proven: fraud stops before the payout, honest claims close faster.
Corporate and compliance
Deliveries, audits and inspections that are proven, not merely recorded, when a client or an authority asks.
Construction and field work
Site conditions and progress fixed in time and place, so variations and liabilities are settled on facts.
Media and journalism
Footage and sources that cannot be waved away as fabricated, in a landscape where anything can be generated.
Public sector
Citizen reports and official communications that stand as record, transparent and admissible.
The question is no longer whether your data is true. It is whether you can prove it.
Certification closes that gap once, at the moment of capture, and for good.
