eDiscovery software and services company UBIC specialises in Asian language eDiscovery. The most recent version of its forensic software, Lit i View Xaminer™, is designed in Japan with an eye to the requirements of Japanese police and other government agencies.

UBIC offers more than just the software, with a business division aimed at the deployment of their applications in support of the relevant authorities, and based on their views and requests.

Cybercrime has been increasing in Japan, as everywhere else, and the feedback received by UBIC suggested that the lack of language specific functions was impeding investigations – thus the new development.

There is a press release about the software and the supporting business here.
