The Mission Darkness™ Blocker Locker 7™ system solves multiple problems for forensics investigators and labs. To effectively access and recover data from cell phones and tablets, the latest forensic tools require devices to stay live. It can be difficult to keep devices shielded from RF signals, charged at all times, and securely locked. The Blocker Locker 7 accomplishes all of these objectives in a single cabinet designed specifically for shielding, charging, and locking. The unit includes seven fully loaded compartments equipped with Window Charge & Shield Faraday Bags for Phones, while additional Charge & Shield Faraday Bags can be purchased as required or to increase capacity.

KEEP DEVICES LIVE AND SHIELDED
From Seizure to Evidence Storage to Data Extraction
The Mission Darkness™ Blocker Locker 7™ system solves multiple problems for forensics investigators and labs. To effectively access and recover data from cell phones and tablets, the latest forensic tools require devices to stay live. It can be difficult to keep devices shielded from RF signals, charged at all times, and securely locked. The Blocker Locker 7 accomplishes all of these objectives in a single cabinet designed specifically for shielding, charging, and locking. The unit includes seven fully loaded compartments equipped with Window Charge & Shield Faraday Bags for Phones, while additional Charge & Shield Faraday Bags can be purchased as required or to increase capacity.
The charging feature is designed to prevent lockout mode and reduce the amount of time needed to break a passcode, enabling the maximum amount of data extraction and unlocking with tools like GrayKey, Cellebrite, Magnet, XRY, BlackBag, Oxygen, etc.
To extract data from a device in the Blocker Locker 7, simply unlock the individual compartment, disconnect the power cable, remove the Charge & Shield Faraday Bag, and transfer it into a forensic faraday box or RF shielded room. The bag can be easily opened inside a faraday box (the patented NeoLok™ magnetic closure reduces faraday glove abrasion) while the device is passed into the shielded enclosure. Shielding and power are never compromised, providing a seamless process for investigators.
NEW LOCKER DESIGN AND MATCHING LOCKER STAND!
The Blocker Locker exterior was updated to a black finish with a striped design in October 2022, as shown in the image above. The usage steps and interior compartments remain the same as the previous model with a gray finish.
A matching industrial-grade aluminum locker stand was introduced in January 2024. The add-on accessory stand elevates the locker to a more user-friendly height, optimizing workspace by liberating desk or counter areas, and supporting the locker’s weight. This eliminates the need for extensive installation, as anchoring the unit to a wall suffices.
Blocker Locker System Usage Steps
1) Insert Device in a Window Charge & Shield Faraday Bag
Once a cell phone, tablet, or similar device is received at the police station, the officer places it inside a vacant Mission Darkness Window Charge & Shield Faraday Bag, which is stationed inside each Blocker Locker compartment. The corresponding cable tip (provided in the bag’s zipper pocket) is used to connect the device to the bag’s inner USB port. The bag is then sealed using the NeoLok magnetic closure.
2) Connect the Bag to Power
The officer connects the shielded USB A/M to A/M cable that is plugged into the locker compartment power outlet to the outer USB port on the Window Charge & Shield Faraday Bag. An external cable lock ensures that the cable isn’t disconnected unintentionally. Device status can be confirmed by viewing the screen through the bag’s transparent window.
3) Lock the Bag in a Blocker Locker Compartment
The officer locks the compartment, then puts the key in the dropbox, and leaves evidence notes relating to the locker contents. The device can remain in the compartment securely locked, charged, and shielded indefinitely.
4) Disconnect the Bag From Power
At the point when passcode breaking or data extraction is to occur, the individual handling the evidence uses a key (either the master or the corresponding one) to open the locker compartment. The user unlatches the external cable lock, disconnects the USB cable connected to the outer USB hub on the bag, and removes the sealed bag from the compartment.
5) Transfer for Data Extraction
The device remains shielded in the Window Charge & Shield Faraday Bag while it is transferred to the lab or location where it will be analyzed.
Additional Usage Scenarios
How to Use With GrayKey, Cellebrite, or Other Forensic Tools
- The Window Charge & Shield Faraday Bag can be transferred to an RF shielded room or faraday forensic box for use with unlocking tools like GrayKey.
- If using with a forensic box like the Mission Darkness BlockBox Lab XL, place the GrayKey unit inside the box and connect it to the inner RJ45 ethernet port.
- Insert the Window Charge & Shield Faraday Bag carrying the device into the box and close the lid.
- Place hands in the conductive gloves to open the Window Charge & Shield Faraday Bag and remove the device. The NeoLok magnetic closure is easy to open inside the box and reduces faraday glove abrasion (compared to Velcro closure bags).
- The device can then be connected internally to GrayKey, Cellebrite, or other forensic tool.
How to Transfer a Device From a Standard Faraday Bag to a Window Charge & Shield Faraday Bag
- If a device arrives to the police station already in a standard faraday bag, it can be transferred to a Window Charge & Shield Faraday Bag using a forensic box with hands-on access.
- Simply place both bags inside the forensic box, close the lid, and transfer the device using the conductive gloves. Faraday bags with a NeoLok magnetic closure are preferred when being handled by conductive gloves.
- *When in use, never open a faraday bag unless the environment is RF shielded (such as a faraday box or tent).
If Using a Window Charge & Shield Faraday Bag Without the Blocker Locker
- The Window Charge & Shield Faraday Bag can be purchased and used independently without the Blocker Locker. The USB filter enables the device to receive power while it is transferred throughout various locations such as a vehicle, desk, or evidence cabinet, until it can be analyzed in a different RF shielded location.
- Use the shielded USB A/M to A/M cable attached to the outer side of USB filter to connect a portable battery or power outlet to charge the device inside.
- For data extraction through the USB filter, the user simply disconnects the power source and connects to an extraction tool.
Increase Locker Capacity by Purchasing Additional Charge & Shield Faraday Bags
Each Locker Compartment Can Fit Up to Two Charge & Shield Faraday Bags
- Charge & Shield Faraday Bags come in phone and tablet size, window and non-window style. Click the links below to view the product pages.
- Each Blocker Locker compartment can fit up to two Charge & Shield Faraday Bags, enabling you to increase the capacity from seven to fourteen devices.
- Each Charge & Shield Faraday Bag includes two comprehensive charging cable sets (USB A/M to A/M, lightning, micro USB, USB-C, and USB extension).
- Additional add-on accessories can be added to each Charge & Shield Faraday Bag; options include dual USB port car and wall chargers, continuously charging portable power banks, and an additional cable set. These accessories enable short term charging capabilities, which may be required during transportation or until the bag can be connected to a long term power source (such as the Blocker Locker) while waiting to be analyzed in the lab. Ensuring that the device stays live throughout device intake prevents lockout mode and reduces the amount of time needed to break a passcode.

Videos
Watch the Field to Lab demo video to see why the Blocker Locker 7 is an integral part of the digital evidence handling process.
- Digital evidence (cell phones and tablets specifically) should be RF shielded and remain charging from the point of seizure all the way to the lab, for maximum data recovery and password cracking with tools like Cellebrite and GrayKey. Simple Velcro faraday bags no longer support this entire process. This video shows the specific set of products that are required to ensure devices are not remote wiped and do not die while en route to the lab. It is important to understand that traditional digital evidence handling techniques are insufficient for current data extraction and password recovery tools. Read the blog post for more details.
