Step 1: FTK Imaging Lab Report

One of the first steps in conducting forensic investigations often involves creating an image of the forensic evidence. Forensic evidence can be found in operating systems, network traffic (including e-mails), and software applications. To help the detectives in your department understand the digital forensics investigation process better, you have offered to show them how you create an image using FTK Imager. FTK Imager can be used to analyze many types of media including audio, pictures, and videos. Graphics files can be a rich source of forensic evidence.

Because you are pressed for time, you go to the virtual lab and decide to create an image of the “My Pictures” directory on your computer. This process is very similar to making a full computer image, but it takes only a few minutes rather than several hours. You are preparing a report describing the steps that you follow so the detectives can refer to it later. You will include a screenshot and text file (CSEC662_Lab1_Name.ad1) that document your imaging process with information such as hash values.

Step 2: Process an Image from the suspect Mantooth’s computer

In the previous step you imaged a directory for a forensic report using FTK Imager. Now the detectives have requested additional analysis so you decide to go to the virtual lab and use Registry Viewer to access user account information for the image from the Mantooth computer.

Step 3: Process an Image from the suspect Washer’s computer

The Mantooth image has provided a lot of new information, but the detectives want more. PRTK is the tool that can uncover it. An image has been taken of the hard drive in a computer belonging to a suspect named Washer.

Step 4: Submit Final Paper: Use of Access Data Tools

The time has come to combine work products from Steps 1, 2, and 3 into a final paper summarizing the Use of Access Data Tools. You submit it to the detectives (your instructor) and cross your fingers that it contains everything they need to know about the most widely-used tools available for accessing and imaging forensic data.
