Summary:This assignment accepts group work (no more than 3).Building Lap:
Steps:
- Select and research the virtualization software you will use to build your virtual digital forensics lab. Examples of software you may choose include VirtualBox, VMware, Hyper-V, or other virtualization software.
- Install the Software: Install the virtualization software on your computer. Ensure that your computer meets the minimum requirements for the software.
- Create a virtual machine within the virtualization software. Ensure that the virtual machine meets the recommended specifications for digital forensics work. You may choose to use a pre-built virtual machine template or create one from scratch.
- Install an operating system on the virtual machine. Ensure that the operating system is a version that is commonly used in digital forensics work, such as Windows or Linux.
- Install digital forensics tools on the virtual machine. Examples of tools you may choose to install include Autopsy, Forensic Toolkit (FTK), Sleuth Kit, or other tools that are commonly used in digital forensics work.
- Configure the virtual network to ensure that the virtual machine can communicate with other devices on the network.
- Test the virtual lab to ensure that all components are working correctly. You may choose to test the lab by conducting a basic digital forensics investigation
Write Paper documentation:
Note: For each student in a group the minimum word count is 500 words per student. So if you are working with another student your written blog must have a minimum of 1000 words. For three students, 1500 words is the minimum.
Steps:
- Document the steps you took to build your virtual digital forensics lab. This documentation should include:
- the purpose of your digital forensics machine
- the system requirements to include hardware and software requirement
- a list of the digital forensics tools you’ve installed or that are already included within the operating system you selected. Be sure the tools aligns with the purpose of your digital forensics lab
- any issues you encountered during the process and how you resolved them,
- and the rationale behind your design choices from stat to finish.
- screenshots of your process (your own screenshots)
- appropriate hyperlinks to resources such official developer page and other resources.
