F-Response has a new version

F-Response has a new version.  4.0.6
There are some pretty big changes.
  • New connectors for all customers with Tactical and above
  • F-Response Database Object Connector - Maps remote databases with embedded file objects to the local examiner's machine where they appear as a local read-only share.
  • F-Response Email connector - provides direct, read-only access to remote GMail, Yahoo! Mail, and IMAP based email data.  F-Response will show it as a read-only, locally attached share.
I can't stress this enough, F-Response is a must for anyone doing acquisitions.  The extra capabilities it adds are immense.

Thank you

I would like to thank everyone for visiting!

I have gotten a bit fed up with blogspot over the past few months and have decided to buy a domain for the blog.

For the next month (through April) I will still be posting here, however I now own www.forensicupdates.com

Both sites will get the updates and I will fully transition by April 30th.

I hope to see you there!

New Year

Welcome back to the blog!

January was pretty slim on the updates.  There were a few at the end of the month, but I decided to hold off until today to post them.

Thanks for visiting and making this blog a success last year.  I hope to continue throughout this year as well.

I get to shamelessly brag a little bit about H-11 here.  H-11 Digital Forensics were the Guidance Software Authorized Training Partner of the Year Worldwide for 2012!

Lets make 2013 awesome as well!
