The Basics...Using a Write Blocker
Successful forensic imaging depends on several key elements:
Accessdata Drivers
- Being able to connect to and communicate with the source evidence device.
- Ensuring the source evidence device is not modified.
- Ensuring that the copy (the forensic image) is a faithful and verifiable duplicate of the original evidence.

Write blocking is one of the most widely used technologies used to enable a successfulconnection to the source evidence device while ensuring that it remains unmodified.
There are many different types of write blockers - like those in the Digital IntelligenceUltraBlock familyof write blockers. Different write blockers offer different interfaces for connectingto different types of storage devices, like SATA, SAS, IDE, USB, memory cards and so forth.The write blocker 'sits between' the source evidence device and the computer doing theimaging operation. You can buy write blockers inindividuallyor incomplete kits.

The process of forensic imaging is itself managed by 'imaging software' like TIM (theTableau Imager), EnCase Forensic or FTK Imager. Imaging software creates reads the sourceevidence through the write blocker and creates a 'forensic image' on a destination device.While creating the forensic image the imaging software also calculates a digital 'fingerprint'(technically known as a 'hash signature') for the evidence and stores this signature withthe forensic image. The fingerprint/signature can be recalculated at later stages ofthe digital investigation and compared with the original to ensure that the forensicimage remains a faithful copy of the origina evidence.
