**Viewing and copying timestamps in the Console**

Throughout the Console (e.g. Evidence Repositories, Tasks, Cases, Assets, Acquisition Profiles, API Tokens), you can hover over any timestamp in a table to see a pop-over with that time in multiple formats—UTC (ISO 8601), UTC, local timezone, relative (e.g. “an hour ago”), and epoch. You can copy any format for reports or external tools; copying creates an event record for audit.
