Introducing NOVACAST: Forensic Web Intelligence, Now Free to Try

DATAENFORCE opens NOVACAST to the public - a free, no-signup URL scanner backed by the same local forensic engines used for court-admissible casework. Paste a link, get a verdict in seconds, and never share your URL with a third party.

DATAENFORCE is making NOVACAST, its forensic web intelligence platform, free to try. Anyone can now paste a suspicious link at novacast.dataenforce.com/scan and receive a threat verdict in seconds - no account, no installation, no friction.

What sets NOVACAST apart is what happens behind the scan. Every URL is analysed entirely by local, proprietary engines - 31 of them, spanning domain, TLS, redirect, hosting, page-behaviour, form, brand-impersonation and tracker analysis. NOVACAST queries no third-party intelligence services, so your URL is never resold, shared, or handed to an external threat-intel broker. For a defence-grade platform, that isolation is not a footnote - it is the point.

The free scan returns a clear verdict and threat score, the concrete reasons behind it, a screenshot of the captured page, and a shareable result link. It is designed for the question analysts and everyday users ask most: is this link safe to open?

The free tool is informational. The full NOVACAST platform goes further: it preserves the complete site as a court-admissible forensic image, with an unbroken chain of custody and judicial-grade reporting already trusted by international criminal investigation agencies. The free scanner is the front door; the institutional edition is built for casework that has to hold up in court.

Try it now at novacast.dataenforce.com/scan. Investigators and agencies that need admissible evidence and institutional capacity can request a briefing.
