This collaboration allows agencies to access both real-time and historical UAV flight data alongside mobile forensic evidence. The integration aims to centralize diverse investigation data within a single platform for improved efficiency. *Summarized by AI Cellebrite, a global leader in AI-powered digital investigative and intelligence solutions for the public and private sectors, has partnered with SkySafe, a leader in drone detection and airspace intelligence. The exclusive partnership combines advanced digital forensics with advanced drone detection, deep analysis of drone activity, and drone activity, equipping organizations and agencies with the intelligence needed to proactively detect, analyze, and act on potential threats in real-time at scale.  As malicious drone use continues to rise, investigators face increasing challenges in connecting digital evidence with time-sensitive unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) operational data. "This partnership bridges the critical and often life-saving divide between digital forensics and real-time intelligence," said Shiven Ramji, Cellebrite's president, products and technology. "By working closely with SkySafe, we can help empower organizations to protect their communities, safeguard infrastructure, and respond to emerging threats with unprecedented speed and clarity." By integrating SkySafe's drone detection and airspace intelligence with Cellebrite's platform, agencies can connect real-time and historical UAV flight data with mobile forensic evidence, all in one place. The result is actionable intelligence that reveals hidden patterns, identifies illicit networks and accelerates investigations. "Effective drone investigations begin with trusted airspace intelligence," said Grant Jordan, founder and CEO of SkySafe. "Together with Cellebrite, we're helping agencies and organizations detect, analyze and act on drone activity using comprehensive forensic data that supports both immediate response and long-term investigations." Following Cellebrite's acquisition of SCG Canada in March 2026, this new agreement reflects an expanded relationship, which makes Cellebrite the exclusive digital forensics partner to SkySafe's advanced UAV capabilities. The move further cements Cellebrite's position as the recognized leader in digital forensics and intelligence, ensuring its customers have access to preeminent proprietary extraction and decryption capabilities – unlike anything else available today. Under this partnership, Cellebrite and SkySafe will collaborate to expand the digital intelligence available to investigators by combining SkySafe's drone detection, airspace intelligence and forensic expertise with Cellebrite's industry-leading ecosystem of investigative solutions. The partnership is designed to help customers access richer drone-related intelligence and support more comprehensive investigations, while creating opportunities for future innovation across public safety, defense and enterprise use cases.
