Do you have the username and signon to decrypt? I am assuming so and this is how you plan to access the data after imaging it. I deal with Pointsec in one of my environments and image it live with FTK Imager (with very strong documentation as to why the hashes don't match). Many circles feel that this is acceptable with supporting documentation for whole disk encryption. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Erin Carroll Sent: Wednesday, July 04, 2007 7:05 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Pointsec forensic disk imaging time All, I pinged the archives but didn't see a relevant thread on this... Does anyone have any advice on decreasing the forensic imaging time for Pointsec encrypted drives using the DOS boot disk? Currently a colleague is getting an average of 16-hour turnarounds and I thought I'd see if there were any hidden tips or tricks to work around the problem. It can be painfully slow when pulling images from older hardware since AFAIK there is no feasible way to offload the disk to a beefier machine without borking things. -- Erin Carroll Moderator SecurityFocus pen-test list "Do Not Taunt Happy-Fun Ball" -- No virus found in this incoming message.
