Decos Technology Group adquiere ZiuZ Forensics

The ZiuZ Forensics suite offers advanced software for pattern and image recognition, applying technologies such as hash matching (comparing unique codes of files), machine learning and AI. These powerful tools are used by international police and security services to filter, search and match large amounts of footage during their investigations.

The forensic products help law enforcement agencies worldwide to quickly detect child abuse, for example. The 'AviaTor' solution helps analysts identify perpetrators and rescue victims. The 'Fenoz' solution uses filters and AI classifications to analyze an unlimited amount of images and videos, helping investigators to detect known and unknown child abuse images.

“Decos is known for our products JOIN and FIXI, with which we help governments provide efficient digital service to residents and is also internationally active in the field of healthcare and medical devices. We want to use technology for positive impact, preferably internationally,” says Daniël de Klerk, CEO of Decos.
 

Decos growth strategy

The acquisition of ZiuZ fits within the broader growth strategy of Decos Technology Group. CEO Daniël de Klerk explains: “We make an impact by making software technology applicable for purposes that matter to society. With this expansion we expand our expertise and applicability of our software technology in society.”

“Fighting crime is an important, challenging job for police organizations and investigative parties and requires advanced technologies that allow large amounts of data to be inspected quickly and accurately. With our expertise and capabilities, we want to help ZiuZ to give children a safe childhood.”
 

RESTART ZIUZ FORENSICS

The parent company ZiuZ Holding was recently declared bankrupt. Thanks to this acquisition, the healthy subsidiary ZiuZ Forensics is making a new start within Decos, allowing the team to continue their important work and continue to help their customers.

Jos Flury, project manager of ZiuZ Forensics and Digital Investigations: “This acquisition enables ZiuZ to continue its important contribution and help countless international organizations combat and punish child abuse worldwide. The solutions will also be developed even further, and services will be professionalized. The team will continue under the name 'ZiuZ Forensics and Digital Investigations' and operates as an independent part within the Decos Technology Group. ZiuZ's account managers and project managers remain the trusted point of contact for customers.”
