Government Grade Cloud Evidence Collaboration Is Here
For years, federal agencies have faced a difficult tradeoff when it comes to digital evidence: maintain full control through on-prem infrastructure, or pursue cloud efficiency without the security assurances required for sensitive investigative data. Today, that tradeoff no longer exists.
Cellebrite Government Cloud has achieved FedRAMP® High authorization, enabling federal agencies to securely host, share, and review digital evidence in a cloud environment assessed and authorized for federal use.
This milestone represents more than a new deployment option. It marks a fundamental shift in how federal organizations can manage digital evidence across teams, cases, and agencies—and it establishes a secure foundation for expanding cloud based investigative capabilities.

Why FedRAMP High Matters
FedRAMP High is the highest impact level in the FedRAMP framework, intended for cloud systems that handle the federal government’s most sensitive unclassified data—including law enforcement, emergency services, financial, and health information—where a loss of confidentiality, integrity, or availability could have severe or catastrophic consequences. Authorization requires implementation of an extensive set of security controls, continuous monitoring, and formal approval by a sponsoring federal agency.
This rigor is why FedRAMP High authorization is meaningful for law enforcement, investigative, and other high-impact government use cases where security, access control, and auditability are nonnegotiable.
The FedRAMP Marketplace lists Cellebrite Government Cloud as FedRAMP Authorized at the High impact level, reflecting that the service has completed the required authorization process for handling sensitive digital evidence.
Moving Inseyets Beyond On-Prem
Federal agencies already rely on Inseyets for advanced digital evidence extraction, decoding, and analysis. Historically, however, deploying Inseyets required agencies to host and manage their own on-prem infrastructure—adding complexity, cost, and IT burden.
With Cellebrite Government Cloud, agencies can securely access the latest forensic capabilities from Cellebrite’s FedRAMP High Authorized cloud environment. This shift delivers immediate benefits:
- Reduced infrastructure and maintenance overhead
- Faster deployment and scalability
- Strong security controls aligned with federal requirements
- Immediate access to the latest unlock and extraction capabilities available
Agency forensic examination workflows using Inseyets Physical Analyzer remain unchanged, while Inseyets UFED is now empowered with the latest cloud‑enabled unlock and extraction capabilities.
Secure Cloud Sharing with Guardian
Just as significant is what FedRAMP High enables for Guardian.
Guardian has long delivered secure digital evidence review, management, and collaboration. Until now, many federal agencies were unable to leverage cloudbased evidence sharing at scale due to authorization and compliance requirements specific to federal environments.
That has now changed.
FedRAMP High authorization makes cloud-based evidence sharing and review with Guardian viable for federal use. Agencies can securely share digital evidence with authorized stakeholders, collaborate across teams, and review materials in a trusted government cloud—while maintaining chain of custody and access controls.
This unlocks workflows that were previously constrained by security requirements, enabling greater efficiency without compromising trust or accountability.
What’s Next: Expanding Guardian Capabilities in Government Cloud
For federal cloud evidence workflows, FedRAMP High authorization is a key requirement for expanding cloud-based investigative capabilities within a rigorously governed federal environment.
As approvals are completed, we intend to make additional Guardian capabilities available in the government cloud, including:
- Guardian Collaborate with AI-assisted review, enabling authorized users to securely share, review, and collaborate on digital evidence in the cloud while using AI to help surface relevant information and reduce review time—without compromising chain of custody or oversight.
- Guardian Forensics, which extends cloud collaboration into more advanced forensic workflows, supporting structured evidence submission and lab management while reducing reliance on on-prem infrastructure.
- Guardian Investigate, a centralized investigative environment that brings together people, evidence, and AIassisted analysis to help teams connect insights, build timelines, and coordinate complex investigations across roles and agencies.
This roadmap reflects a deliberate, security-first approach to cloud expansion—balancing rapid access to modern investigative capabilities with strict adherence to FedRAMP High requirements, government oversight, and the FedRAMP authorization process.
