The Remote Preview Pod can be used to access data files from a target or suspect hard drive with complete confidence that the data on the drive will not be changed. The computer system used to access the data files must be running a compatible operating system and application program. Alternatively, files may be viewed using our forensic software.
When used with Vogon 32-bit Windows based imaging software, extremely high volumes of computer data can be captured quickly and efficiently with absolute assurance of data integrity.
The imaging software has been developed by Vogon over the past decade to offer very high imaging performance together with comprehensive auditing and anti-repudiation techniques. This imaging process is independent of the file system(s) on the hard drive under investigation, and is recognised by courts around the world as the only valid means of capturing computer evidence.
An additional suite of forensic software tools is available to permit processing and investigation of data held within an image. The Software page covers the features of these software tools.
Features of the Remote Preview Pod
- Preview capability: Data files can be accessed with complete confidence that the data on the hard drive will not be changed.
- Automatic write protection: Specialised hardware ensures that there is absolutely no risk of accidentally writing to the hard drive under investigation.
- Hard drive connectivity: Any hard drive with an ATA or SCSI interface can be attached.
- Convenience: A two metre flexible cable connects to a remote pod that in turn connects to the hard drive under investigation. This allows most hard drives to be connected without the need to remove them from the computer under investigation.
- Flexibility: Hard drives may be disconnected and connected without the need to reboot the Imaging System.
- Safety: A protected power supply provides power to the hard drive. The computer under investigation does not need to be powered.
Features of the 32-bit Imaging Software
- High performance: 32-bit imaging software provides state of the art imaging performance.
- Progress and status reporting: The software provides an on-screen progress display and a printable status report is generated for audit purposes.
- Real-time reporting: A display panel on the bus expansion module provides instantaneous data capture rate information.
- Anti-repudiation facility: CRC32 and MD5 checksums generated during the imaging process allow the image to be validated at any time.
