If getting the electronic dirt on computer erudite miscreants is part of your job
description, this is the widget for you
WiebeTech has announced Forensic DriveDock, a write blocked FireWire bridge. This new
product is perfectly suited for forensic analysis of IDE data storage devices,
especially for law enforcement and criminal investigation marketplaces. The product
allows data to be read from drives without risk of writing data back to the drives,
and is expected to become a handy tool of criminal investigation and forensic
laboratories.
�Customers were asking for a very small, very portable device which could be used for
laboratory and field analysis of hard drives,� said James Wiebe, CEO of WiebeTech.
�Forensic DriveDock exactly fits the requirements because it carries the rare
attribute of being a write blocked FireWire bridge, combined with extremely small size
and extremely high performance. As a result, it will be a standard piece of equipment
for police departments who are engaged in the forensic analysis of computer equipment.�
Features and benefits:
� The use of the Oxford OXFW911 FireWire bridge provides users with outstanding
performance and highest compatibility with PCs and Macs.
� Forensic DriveDock blocks write operations to the drive. As a result, data may be
read from drives without fear of accidently writing to the drive.
� Forensic DriveDock allows user's storage devices to mount on any of the following
operating systems without the use of software drivers: Windows 98SE, ME, 2K, XP, OS
9.1, 9.2 and X. No drivers are included; none are needed making installation easy.
� Forensic DriveDock is extremely small, with dimensions of only 1.00 x 1.54 x 2.42
inches.
The Forensic DriveDock, including AC adapter is priced at $249.95. The product is
shipping from factory stock.
Editor's note: Forgive my ignorance, but an investigator can't write to disk can he
still break an encrypted disk?
