About Nevral Forensics Intelligence (NFI)
Nevral Forensics Intelligence (NFI) is a digital forensics platform for laboratories that store evidence on their own premises under applicable law. The project aims to build a lawful device-access capability for locked devices, delivered to licensed laboratories via Capability Packs. The platform enforces a court-order gate and requires signed, hash-chained records before any extraction method runs.
Job Description
Independent researchers and laboratories may join as research partners. Partners receive the NFI platform free while active, plus Academy access. In return, partners share device-access research produced on owned devices (methods, findings, and limits). Research is validated on NFI reference devices to a fixed proof standard; proven methods are written into a coverage matrix with the contributor credited and productized only after validation. This is a research-exchange program, not a traditional employment posting. Conditions include owned devices only; a court-order gate on every locked-tier extraction; responsible disclosure; and disqualifiers such as no history of selling exploits to brokers for offensive use, no involvement in the stolen-data trade, and no work on devices the program does not own. Bar is evidence, not polish: published vulnerability research on mobile platforms, CVE credits or equivalent, or a verifiable laboratory record. Research tracks include MediaTek, Unisoc, Qualcomm, Apple, Samsung, and passcode recovery, weighted toward devices seized in our markets. Apply by emailing info@nevrallab.com with links to published research and CVE credits or equivalent records. That evidence is the application.Remote
Remote Conditions
Worldwide remote participation; applicants must be independent researchers or laboratories with owned devices. Evidence of capability (published vulnerability research, CVE credits, or verifiable laboratory records) is required as the application. No history of selling exploits to brokers, no involvement in stolen-data trade, and no work on devices the program does not own.
Salary
Not Specified
Benefits
Free NFI platform while active; Academy access; contributor credit; access to reference devices for validation.
