CyberSpeak June 20 2011

This week (OK, this quarter) on CyberSpeak, FTK 4 coming out using Postgres database rather than Oracle. During listener email we discuss if special language is needed for search warrants when collecting volatile data, imaging RAM or conducting on scene triage. Imaging SSD drives using the WinFE boot disk solution ( http://winfe.wordpress.com) and a shout out to Sandy and Steve for their great testimony in the Casey Anthony trial. Check it out at on Day 24 segment 4-6. In the news, A computer repairman was arrested for allegedly planting spyware on dozens of computers he fixed and remotely taking hundreds of photos of women in their homes partially clothed or naked. If you see the message "You should fix your internal sensor soon. If unsure what to do, try putting your laptop near hot steam for several minutes to clean the sensor." DONT take your laptop into the shower.
