We are pleased to announce the availability of LACE 12.5.8. This version now supports the version 1.3 of the pVIC protocol (a standard for communication and information sharing specific to media files, cases and hash/visual signatures sets) that allows the flow of more information with other VIC compliant tools. This version also improves matching speed and includes the new Case Allocation routines (multiple investigators on the same case) to operate faster with very large cases (cases over 10 million files).
