Document Forensics

Overview

Document Forensics adds an advanced layer of control to Dotfile’s document review automation. It analyzes uploaded documents for signs of tampering, forgery, and authenticity, complementing our AI/OCR-driven data extraction and validation.

Document Forensics checks documents over 500 ways for signs of fraud:

  • Template farms, Gen AI, Document reuse
  • Metadata changes
  • Pixel structure anomalies
  • Digital manipulation detection
  • Authenticity check of known digital PDFs

Configuration

Enable Document Forensicsf or native document types:

  • Go to Settings > Dotfile AI.
  • Enable Document Forensics for the desired document types

Enable Document Forensicsf for custom document types:

  • Go to Settings > Checks > Documents.

Usage

Automatic Forensic Analysis

  • When a document is uploaded, Dotfile runs forensic checks in addition to standard analysis.
  • The result is shown in the Console as part of the document’s Analysis Result

Impact on Automation

  • If any forensics indicator flags a document as high risk, Dotfile overrides automatic approval and routes the check for manual review.
  • This ensures only documents assessed as trustworthy are auto-approved.

Reviewing Results

  • In the Console, forensic results and indicators are visible within the document analysis view.
  • Analysts can see which specific aspects triggered risk or trust signals for full transparency.
