Cellebrite Announces 2027 JUSTYS Nomination Call: Celebrating Unsung Heroes
Cellebrite, a leading provider of digital investigative solutions, has recently announced the opening for nominations for the prestigious JUSTYS 2027 awards. These awards intend to commend the unsung heroes working tirelessly to maintain global security through their dedicated efforts in digital investigations. Scheduled for April 13, 2027, at the annual C2C User Summit, the JUSTYS are set to feature an elite panel of judges and stricter evaluation criteria designed to enhance the recognition of remarkable achievements in the field.
This marks the third edition of the JUSTYS, which aims to honor individuals and teams whose work ensures the safety of communities, achieves justice for victims and survivors, and holds offenders accountable. While some cases presented at the JUSTYS gain significant attention, many others do not; however, it is often the less visible yet relentless contributions of these professionals that make our world a safer place.
David Gee, Chief Marketing Officer of Cellebrite, expressed, “The JUSTYS represent the crown jewel of our global C2C User Summit. We are privileged to recognize these professionals who serve as heroes in their communities. The energy at our conference is palpable, and the JUSTYS ceremony promises to be a magical evening.” The event is set to take place in Dallas, and the excitement surrounding it is already noticeable.
The awards ceremony will be hosted once again by Jesse Weber, the renowned host from LawCrime Network and NewsNation. The JUSTYS will be broadcast live on the LawCrime Network's YouTube channel, which has an impressive subscription base of 7.7 million. This platform will help to raise awareness of the award winners' contributions, showcasing their hard work to a worldwide audience dedicated to true crime and legal content.
The evaluation of nominees will be conducted by a jury composed of prominent industry experts following rigorous criteria. Each nomination will be assessed across three primary areas: 'Digital Forensic Investigative Excellence', 'Investigative Impact', and 'Integrity and Ethics'. This ensures an independent and comprehensive evaluation process, where attaining a perfect score is rare but celebrated.
The categories of the 'Case of the Year' award have evolved to include 'Crimes Against Children and Human Trafficking', 'Drug Crime', 'Violent Crime', and 'National Security'. Furthermore, the JUSTYS will acknowledge excellence across the entire digital forensics and investigative community, ensuring that all nominations are held to the same high standards of measurable impact.
Nominations are currently being accepted until October 31, 2026. With numerous submissions already in place, those interested in recognizing the achievements of digital forensic professionals are encouraged to participate.
