This is possible even if your downloaded file size is the same as original file size. This application is already included in DART. To burn the ISO image you will need disk burning software which is freely available online. Most of these applications are very user-friendly; just follow the steps provided within the program to burn your ISO image to a disk.
ISO images function as a snapshot of an entire system. This includes the hard drive file systems. Your ISO image serves as a platform for forensic analysis of the target system. The deft ISO must be burned using the original snapshot. Burning ISO images is possible with almost every burning software13, simply by selecting the option for the images. On Linux the burning software K3B has the functionality required to burn the image file.
It performs the write operation after the user selects the ISO image to be put on the USB stick and the drive letter the system will acquire. You may also want to set a "volume label" to remind you which distribution and version is on the usb flash drive. We recommend changing the boot order of the devices directly in the BIOS to prevent an accidental reboot of your PC e.
The first option will require you to select a language for the DEFT You may choose from some pre-set options on the menu, or customize them yourself. For more information on adjustable parameters at boot time, you can refer to Appendix 1. This parameter allows you to properly handle the video drivers and to use the system without screen issues.
Video support is Usually a combination of a kernel drm driver and Xorg drivers working together. If you want to use the vesa Xorg driver, and you have hardware uses the Intel That, Nouveau, or Radeon kernel modules, you may need to boot with nomodeset, or blacklist the matching module, or just delete the module.
The execution speed is greatly increased because you make read operations from disk or flash drive not necessary. The DEFT 7 distribution takes up about 1.
To select the kernel parameters shown on the menu, press the spacebar or the Enter key at the chosen ones: an 'X' will be inserted to confirm the addition to the kernel. If you wish to specify additional kernel parameters, after pressing F6, press the "Esc" key to clear the menu and view in the background the kernel boot line where you can type in the chosen parameters, keeping them separated from each other with spaces. The operation that requires most attention is the partitioning of the mass memory to host the system.
DEFT: text interface session 5. In forensics, the direct mounting of an evidence i. This ensures that the integrity of the evidence can be guaranteed. The selected file system, as well as being stored on a device, can be contained within a file on the disk, containing the dump or the bit-stream image of the acquired device. FAT32 , in this case is defined as split raw. In this case, however, a method of mount based on device loop "converts" virtually, without altering the source a static image file on a linux device dynamic , thus allowing the kernel to mount it as if it were an actual device.
The loop option allows this type of abstraction and is derived from the implicit and automatic application to the below layer of the losetup command, through which you can associate a loop device to the image image. In this way you can run applications working on devices also on images of mass storage.
The other essential option when you mount an image file containing the acquisition of an entire disk and therefore, not of a single partition is "offset". Through the mmls utility you can find the starting offset of a disk partition: mmls dump. As mentioned previously in the manual, these commands may be used to mount a file containing the dump of an entire disk.
In the event that - rare but possible - you made the dump of a single partition, it is not necessary to use the parameter "offset" as the beginning of the partition coincides with the one of the file. Suppose you have an image composed by dump. You cannot apply directly the instructions outlined in the previous paragraph, because in this case you don't have a single image file on which to run the mount command, but five To mount split raw image files, in split-raw format, you have three possibilities.
The first method consists in the concatenation of the individual files into a single image file, bringing you back to the case described in the previous paragraph of a single dump. The obvious disadvantage is that, in this case, the space required for the operation will be equal to the one occupied by the sum of the individual files because you would make a copy, concatenating them into a single file33 [33].
The command to be executed is as follows: cat dump. On this file you will proceed as indicated in the preceding paragraph. The second method is to use the command affuse of the Afflib suite It will be used further on to mount the image in the AFF format. This command will create a kind of "virtual" image and therefore visible by the system but not existing in reality35 which will be mounted as described in the previous paragraph. This file will be visible as dump.
Similarly to the affuse command, xmount creates a virtual file containing the image made by the concatenation of the individual segments that make up the real image.
The command in this case is: xmount -- in dd -- out dd dump. This file can be mounted, as shown in the previous case, selecting the offset of the desired file system in read-only mode. This program is able to virtually convert EWF files to the raw format which allows the device to be mounted as if it was acquired in the dd format.
Example: the memory disk01 is divided into the following files disk E01 disk E07 disk E13 disk E19 disk E02 disk E08 disk E14 disk E20 disk E03 disk E09 disk E15 disk E04 disk E10 disk E16 disk E05 disk E11 disk E17 disk E06 disk E12 disk It will be identified by the system as a single dd file, although virtual, and may be mounted following the procedure shown in the previous paragraph.
Affuse allows you to use the acquisition in the AFF format as they were raw images. This mathematical function is mono-directional: it is impossible to reconstruct the block that has originated a hash string. Any alteration of the data, albeit minimal, will result in a completely different hash.
This algorithm, taking as input a string of arbitrary length such as a file , it produces as output another string of bits used to calculate the digital signature of the input. The calculation is very fast and the output returned also known as "MD5 Checksum" or "MD5 Hash" is such that it is highly unlikely that a collision will occur between the hashes of two different files. Finally, as for most of the hashing algorithms, the possibility of deriving the initial string from the resulting hash is almost nonexistent Like any hash algorithm, SHA generates a fixed length value from a variable length message by using a mono- directional function.
The first type, SHA- 1, calculates a string of only bits, while the others calculate digest of a length in bits equal to the number indicated in their acronym Right now the most widely employed algorithm of the SHA family is the SHA-1 and it is used in many applications and protocols. You can also generate a report in html format In addition to these commands, the DEFT team has created Cyclone, a wizard executable from the terminal to make a guided acquisition through the simple answer to the questions that appear on the screen.
You can make the acquisition of the mass memory to a file or to a mass storage device and vice versa The acquisition by ddrescue can also include those bad sectors that will be acquired by setting to zero all the unreadable bits. During the acquisition detailed information is provided on what has been read and written.
In the case where the dd image contains more partitions, you must use the parameter -o to indicate to fls the sector offset and not bytes, as in the case of the offset parameter of the mount command , starting point of the partition you are going to analyse. To get a list of partitions and their offset values expressed in sectors and not in bytes , it is recommended to use the command mmls of the TSK suite or the fdisk command with "-lu" parameters. It is therefore necessary to process it so as to make it readable, in order and in the chosen format Here is an excerpt from a body file which makes clear the difficulties in interpreting the content by the examiner: [ The mactime command has a summary reporting feature of daily and hourly activities detected on the filesystem, which is added to the function of converting in CSV format and to the function of sorting the records generated by fls command.
This information may be essential to evaluate which days - or at what time - usage activities are detectable on the PC, showing peaks and anomalies perhaps due to weekend activities that hardly jump out in a traditional timeline.
To get a report of daily activities occurred on the filesystem, just add the parameters -d -i followed by the name of the file you want to save that report to. The report on time activities is obtained with -h -i parameters followed by the name of the file you want to save that report to. You will obtain, in this way, a file containing records similar to the following: [ CSV format for compatibility with the editors and spreadsheets.
This value may not be of interest but may, in some cases, be of great importance The examiner should proceed at this point to analyze in more detail the timeline of the day in which the anomaly was found The following table is useful to understand the meaning of the values that appear in the "Activity Type" column. They indicate the actions performed on files and folders in a given timeframe. Here is an example of the result of processing a body file generated by the mactime command: [ SYS [ In addition to the timestamp of the files, there are several metadata on the system under analysis that can be integrated with the timeline of the filesystem The tools to create this kind of "enriched timelines"56are included in deft.
The specific tool used is log2timeline The framework was written by Kristinn Gudjonsson, and the development of its plugins involved the entire open source forensics community. Log2timeline processes parsing , recursively, the files of a partition mounted with some specific parameters, to allow the access to the filesystem metadata. In particular, the metadata log2timeline is able to date to process and insert into a supertimeline are listed in this input modes list: 1.
