Recent news has mostly seen share-price gains after announcements, with one divergence where positive AI platform news coincided with a modest decline.
Over the last six weeks, CLBT has issued a steady stream of announcements, ranging from AI-driven investigative platforms to regulatory filings and corporate events. Launches of Genesis and Guardian Investigate in March 2026 expanded its AI footprint, while the March 2, 2026 drone forensics acquisition added new data sources now referenced in the Spring 2026 Release. Participation in a Morgan Stanley conference and the 2025 Form 20-F filing rounded out a busy period, positioning today’s multi-cloud and device-access expansion as another step in broadening the platform.
Market Pulse Summary
This announcement delivers a broad Spring 2026 upgrade, adding support for newer iOS and Android devices, introducing drone forensics, and extending Corellium to Google Cloud. It follows recent AI platform launches and a drone-forensics acquisition, indicating a push to cover more data types and infrastructure layers. Investors may focus on how these capabilities translate into customer growth and usage, particularly in light of the high share of locked devices—75% in North America—highlighted as a key operational challenge.

MORE DATA SOURCES AND PRESERVED EVIDENCE
Cellebrite's mission protecting communities, nations and businesses is driven by constant innovation to lawfully access the devices, data sources and conditions investigators encounter in the field.
In addition to enhanced access capabilities covering a broader range of devices, Cellebrite's digital forensics customers can now benefit from Safeguard Mode, a new feature which is designed to streamline data capture and addresses the inactivity timers to quickly secure essential information in time-sensitive conditions.
In addition, Cellebrite now offers drone forensics that aims to enable extraction and analysis of critical data from dozens of the most prevalent unmanned aerial systems, including flight logs, video and geolocation artifacts. With portable, field-ready capabilities, teams can rapidly access drone data and view flight paths right at the point of collection.
"Investigators face more devices, more data types and more locked screens than ever before," said Ronnen Armon, chief products and technologies officer, Cellebrite. "This release keeps our access capabilities ahead of that curve, while expanding cloud options for organizations that need to test and secure mobile platforms, software across vehicles, and embedded systems."
AUTOMAKERS CAN VIRTUALLY TEST HARDWARE ON GOOGLE CLOUD
Protecting businesses means securing the software that powers the systems they build and operate.
Testing the multiple, interconnected digital systems and related software that help run today's motor vehicles is a massively complex and expensive undertaking. Maintaining the physical vehicles and associated hardware across generations, chipsets and configurations is challenging, particularly as vehicles become increasingly software enabled.
"The public preview availability of Corellium on Google Cloud Axion C4A metal instances reflects growing demand for Arm-based infrastructure to support complex development and security workloads," said Florian Haubner, Industry Architect Lead Automotive at Google Cloud. "We're excited to support Cellebrite's Corellium platform as it brings scalable, system-level validation to Google Cloud customers across mobile, embedded, and automotive environments."
Corellium by Cellebrite changes the dynamics for automakers, aiming to address an emerging use case for automotive and industrialized systems manufacturers. By virtualizing Arm-based systems at the hardware level, Corellium enables automotive software teams to recreate and test complete vehicle environments in the cloud, from low-level controllers and safety-critical systems to autonomous driving compute to in-cabin and infotainment applications, at the speed of real silicon, without maintaining physical infrastructure. Teams can scale testing across hundreds of system variations and identify vulnerabilities earlier in the development cycle.
