The Netherlands Forensic Institute is working on a Linux-based forensic operating system that will enable the police to secure and remotely analyze evidence related to botnets, project leader Ruud Schramp told Security.NL.
Securing and analyzing digital evidence related to botnets is a costly and time-intensive operation for both the police and the data centers where the data is located. With this project, which received financial incentives from the National Coordinator for Counter Terrorism and Security, the NFI hopes to streamline this process.
