Intelligent Computer Solutions (ICS) has released the Image MASSter Solo-4 hand-held Forensic Duplicator with support for SAS, SATA, IDE, RAID, USB and e-SATA drives as well as a variety of Micro Media cards.
ICS said that all ‘evidence’ can be saved as copies or Linux DD images. All ‘evidence’ drives can be encrypted during the acquisition process to protect sensitive data during transportation.
According to ICS, the new unit also offers a built-in 1 Gigabit Ethernet connection allowing users to forensically capture ‘suspect’ data from networked drives and folders and upload images to Storage Area Networks (SAN) for the purpose of processing and archiving forensic images.
Other features include ‘suspect’ drive spanning to multiple ‘evidence’ drives; drive sanitisation to Department of Defense standard; direct ‘suspect’ data previewing on the unit; data integrity check; the 8-inch colour touch screen; and multilanguage support.
Ezra Kohavi, CEO of ICS, said: “With the development of the Solo-4 technology, ICS carefully took into consideration input from many digital forensic examiners to bring the most versatile, powerful and easy to use forensic hand-held duplicator to the market. The unparalleled performance, feature rich capabilities and affordable price makes Solo-4 the intelligent choice for any investigator today.”
