Forensic File Systems

The Forensic File System^tm is a continuous 24 x 7 network capture technology capable of sustaining capture and stream to disk rates in the gigabyte per second ranges. The technology is an installable file system that is supported on FreeBSD Unix, Linux, and Microsoft Windows.

The Forensic File System^tm also supports a wide range of network appliance and forensic application features, including virtual interface adapters, traffic regeneration and playback, dynamic touch files, distributed storage clustering, and an extremely high performance stream to disk file system. The system is optimized to support concurrent 24 x 7 continuous stream-to-disk capture and real time monitoring of captured data.

You can download a PDF copy of the The Forensic File System^tm User Guide for Linux Systems for detailed information about the capabilities and benefits of the technology.

Botnets, Spambots, and other malicious software is rampant on today's internet. Both home and business users require cost effective solutions to monitor their networks and combat the ever increasing threat of these types of malicious attacks and activities. Some of the botnets operating on the internet contain over 500,000 infected systems and are capable of transmitting over 6 billion spam emails per day.

intellectual property theft and network abuse are commonplace in todays internet and corporate computing environments. Most commerical solutions are prohibitively expensive or are extremely complex and leave the average system administrator with incomplete or inadequate tools to address these issues. Many internet users and system administrators require simple solutions that can generate the necessary chain of custody capture files to provide to law enforcement or corporate human resource departments.

The Forensic File System^tm is easy to configure, easy to use, and provides a full 24 x 7 capture window of all activity on your network, allowing data extracts to be produced quickly.

The Forensic File System^tm supports hundreds of vertical, open source, and proprietary network management, network forensics, and network profiling applications that run right out of the box and are fully supported.

In addition, CALEA applications for law enforcement are fully supported and the technology is also available as a remote file based collector for central server management of captured data from a network of distributed collectors, solutions for home office use, virtual appliance configurations for blade systems, and parallel clustering solutions that can address over 9.007 Pedabytes (9,007 Terabytes) of distributed storage and stream to disk at gigabyte per second performance levels for customers who need to support large corporate or campus networks employing 10 gigabit Ethernet.
