Guidance Software, Inc. (NASDAQ:GUID), the World Leader in Digital Investigations™, announced that its EnCase® software was named Best Computer Forensics Solution at the 2015 SC Awards Europe Awards. The award was announced on June 2, 2015, at the SC Magazine awards gala during the InfoSecurity Europe conference in London.

Each year, hundreds of products are entered in the Excellence Awards: Threat Solutions categories. Each product is judged by a panel representing a cross-section of SC Magazine readership, which is comprised of large, medium and small enterprises from all major vertical markets including financial services, healthcare, government, retail, education and other sectors. Entrants are narrowed down to a select group of finalists before undergoing a rigorous final judging process to determine the winner in each category.

This recognition was the latest in a series of awards that Guidance Software has recently earned. Earlier this year, the company received an SC Magazine Professional Award in the best IT security-related training program category. Guidance Software also was named the Best Computer Forensics Solution in the 2014 SC Awards Europe.

“Receiving SC Magazine’s awards in the United States and abroad is a tremendous honor given that winners are selected by cyber security practitioners,” said Michael Harris, Chief Marketing Officer of Guidance Software. “As more organizations around the world focus on improving their ability to detect, respond to and neutralize sophisticated cyber threats, it’s rewarding to know that EnCase is empowering them to do so in a way that warrants such exceptional accolades.”

Guidance Software’s EnCase® software solution is a powerful, judicially accepted platform that provides the foundation for corporations, government agencies and law enforcement to conduct thorough and effective digital investigations of any kind, including intellectual property theft, incident response and compliance—all while maintaining the forensic integrity of the data.
