Digital Forensics

Ques : #2 benefits of digital forensics
The digital age has brought many advantages to individuals and businesses alike since it started. However, it has also brought a whole host of problems with it as well. More people can tap into to technology for fraudulent or criminal means, which has, of course, made business far more vulnerable than it ever has been before. This is why the idea of using digital forensics in the corporate sector has become more and more prevalent over the past few years.
One area of UK business and industry you may not think would use digital forensics is the corporate sector, but the companies that provide digital forensics in the corporate sector are in high demand today. They are specialists in what they do, and
We have devised a manageable solution that guarantees against loss of data. Furthermore, it does this without impacting on the performance of a system; a system that has to be operational 24/7/365.By taking a 'snapshot' of the data before it's sent to offline media, the performance of the live storage is never degraded. This provides the users and the business with what it needs: a system without planned downtime.

3. Application performance
The effectiveness of forensic laboratories is often down to the performance of the applications that are used by the forensic analysts. This is either because the applications do not yet take advantage of modern hardware, or because the nature of their function is such that they will never perform as quickly as the business would like. To address this issue, VEGA can devise solutions that allows the most intensive forensic applications to be served from powerful-servers. This enables applications to operate with as little 'lag' as possible.
By providing multiple variables of the same application, forensic analysts can initiate multiple actions from a single workstation. This results in greatly increased productivity, removing 'dead-time' where analysts may have traditionally had to wait hours before undertaking other activities.

5. Malware protection
One of the biggest issues for forensic laboratories is unknown malware. To understand what an unidentified piece of software can do, analysts sometimes need to reverse engineer it, or execute it and monitor what it does. If it transpires to be unknown malware, there is the potential of corrupting the entire forensic laboratory and calling into doubt the integrity of the environment used to produce evidence.
Even the best anti-virus programmes only mitigate known risks and attack-vectors. Therefore, a series of security-enforcing functions should always be built that are invisible to the user and enable forensic analysts to examine unknown code without risk to the integrity of the forensic laboratory.
6. Accreditation
The high profile data losses of recent years have propelled the issue of information assurance to the top of the political agenda. Having devised secure systems for the most sensitive parts of UK Government, we have the experience to create a solution that complies with HMG Manual of Protective Security, as well as JSP440. The security enforcing functions mitigate against high confidentiality, integrity and availability
