An autopsy project that includes imaging a usb drive and retrieving a report from the drive

Disk-Imaging.gif

It is safer to perform investigation on a Mac or Windows OS because Windows platforms do provide hardware write protection while performing disk imaging on computer hard disk drives. Linux based operating systems do have software write protection. If you have systems such as USB stick containing Linux OS, that is safer to use in case of Linux.

Imaging the USB drive

sudo ./dcfldd-1.3.4-1/dcfldd if=/dev/sdc1 of=./images/usb-image.dd conv=noerror,sync bs=4096
