Gruetli Laager, TN — Since its founding in 1999, Paraben Corporation has been guided by a single, enduring principle: solving complex problems through innovation. What began as a mission to address consumer technology issues has evolved into a global leadership position in digital investigations, driven by a relentless commitment to finding clarity in even the most challenging data environments.

Under the leadership of founder and CEO Amber Schroader, Paraben strategically pivoted its focus from consumer solutions to digital forensics—an emerging discipline at the time that would soon become critical to law enforcement, government agencies, and enterprises worldwide. This transition positioned Paraben as one of the earliest pioneers in the field, delivering investigative technology capable of extracting and analyzing digital evidence across mobile devices, IoT systems, gaming platforms, and email environments.

At its core, Paraben’s mission has always been about “finding the needle in the haystack.” In an era defined by exponential data growth, the company has built its reputation on transforming overwhelming volumes of digital information into actionable, defensible insight. This capability is driven by the combination of a highly skilled forensic team, advanced technology development, and deep domain expertise—an intersection that continues to set Paraben apart in the digital investigations landscape.

Central to this legacy is Amber Schroader, whose 34 years of experience have shaped both the company and the broader forensic industry. As a technologist and innovator, Schroader has led the development of groundbreaking methods for extracting digital evidence from diverse sources, including hard drives, mobile devices, email systems, and handheld technologies. These capabilities are unified within Paraben’s flagship E3 Forensic Platform, which supports investigators throughout the entire forensic lifecycle—from acquisition to analysis and reporting.

Beyond her role as a technology leader, Schroader is widely recognized as a leading educator in digital forensics. She has developed and delivered extensive training programs covering computer forensics, wireless and mobile technologies, email analysis and extraction, and network forensics. Her expertise has made her a sought-after keynote speaker at industry conferences around the world, as well as a trusted voice in national and international media, including appearances on NBC Nightly News. While known for her technical rigor, Schroader is equally driven by hands-on learning, creative pursuits in the kitchen, and a lifelong passion for science fiction.

Paraben’s growth and influence are reflected in a long history of industry-first innovations. Shortly after its founding in September 1999—named after a term discovered on the back of a shampoo bottle—Paraben began shaping the future of digital investigations. In 2001, the company released the first tool designed specifically to process mobile devices in forensic investigations. This was followed by the first email network archive processing tool in 2002 and the industry’s first direct chip imaging of mobile devices in 2003.

Over the years, Paraben continued to lead the field, introducing native instant messaging analysis, pioneering Faraday bag technology, and supporting iOS and Android devices well ahead of industry norms. The company achieved several significant milestones, including the first Android rooting for digital forensics, early IoT forensic support, cloud data integration, and the development of a unified forensic interface.

As digital ecosystems expanded, Paraben remained at the forefront—introducing gaming forensics, integrated OSINT capabilities, metaverse-related data support, and cloud-based gaming data collection. In 2025, the company reached two landmark achievements: the introduction of Zandra AI, the first artificial intelligence designed to think like a digital investigator, and the launch of the Digital Investigator Membership Program, which brings technology, training, and expert support together in a single, accessible offering. That same year, Paraben further strengthened its platform with Passware integration, enabling advanced smartphone unlocking and analysis within E3.

Paraben’s philosophy is built on the foundation of Technology, Training, and Service. This integrated approach ensures that investigators are not only equipped with advanced tools but are also supported by education, responsive service, and transparent policies. The company maintains a strong commitment to privacy, security, and ethical responsibility through clearly defined privacy policies, end-user license agreements, return policies, and a formal vulnerability disclosure program.

As digital evidence continues to play a critical role in criminal justice, corporate investigations, and cybersecurity response, Paraben Corporation remains focused on innovation that is practical, defensible, and investigator-driven. With more than two decades of leadership and a forward-looking vision, Paraben continues to shape the future of digital investigations—one solved problem at a time.
