Password Cracker POD

The Solution
Using the Vogon Password Cracker POD,
the protection from the drive can be removed,
the drive contents previewed in an
evidentially sound manner (using our write
blocking technology in conjunction with the
Vogon GenTree investigation software), and
the drive imaged.
At the end of the process, the drive
password can be reapplied using the Password
Cracker POD, and the drive returned to its
original condition.
The user of the drive need have no
indication that anything out of the
ordinary had taken place.
The Process
The platter locked drive is attached to the
Password Cracker POD, which has been
connected to the Vogon imaging hardware.
The drive is analysed using the Vogon 32-bit
imaging software, and the decision can
then be made to remove the password
protection from the suspect drive. Using a sim-
ple graphical interface from the imaging soft-
ware the drive is processed and the
protection removed.
The IDE imaging pod is attached to the
drive and either an image taken or the drive
investigated directly using Vogon write-blocking
technology. At the end of the process, the
drive is reattached to the Password Cracker
POD and the protection reapplied, returning the
suspect drive back to its original state.
The process typically takes about seven
minutes to complete, however in extreme cases
it can take somewhat longer depending upon the
nature of the disk, password and encoding
algorithm employed.
The Issue
A situation frequently
encountered by the professional
computer investigator is that of
platter locked hard disks.
This situation arises when a
supervisor password causes
a disk to freeze totally, and this
can only be unfrozen by
re-applying the correct password.
This is the case even if the
hard disk is fitted to a different
laptop computer.
This exciting addition to the range of Vogon forensic
hardware and software is designed to integrate
directly and seamlessly into the existing Vogon
imaging hardware and software system range.

The Password Cracker pod integrates into
our VBus Imaging System.
The VBus Imaging System can be used to access
data files from a target or suspect hard drive
with complete confidence that the data on the
drive will not be changed. The computer system
used to access the data files must be running a
compatible operating system and application
program. Alternatively, files may be viewed
using our forensic software.
When used with Vogon 32-bit Windows
based imaging software, extremely high
volumes of computer data can be captured
quickly and efficiently with absolute assurance
of data integrity.
The imaging software has been developed
by Vogon over the past decade to offer very
high imaging performance together with
comprehensive auditing and anti-repudiation
techniques. This imaging process is independent
of the file system(s) on the hard drive under
investigation, and is recognised by courts
around the world as the only valid means of
capturing computer evidence.
