Logicube Announces Support for E01 Evidence File Format on Dossier

Logicube® Inc. has announced that the company’s premier data capture solution, the Forensic Dossier®, will provide support for the EnCase® evidence file format, E01. The Dossier is the first hardware-based data capture solution to provide support of this widely-used forensic file format. This new software option is scheduled to be available in mid-summer 2009…The E01 option will allow users to capture hard disk drives directly into the E01 format. The evidence or destination drive can then be easily uploaded to the analysis software in a ready-to-analyze state. This eliminates the time-consuming conversion step that users typically must perform today. The Dossier uses CRC and MD5 authentication when capturing to the E01 format and there is no performance degradation in native capture mode.

“Customer feedback is an integral part of product development at Logicube,” commented Farid Emrani, Executive Vice President and COO of Logicube. “Support for the E01 file format has been consistently at the top of the wish list for our customers. Our engineering team has responded to our customers with the addition of this important enhancement to the Forensic Dossier.”

“As the world leader in the eForensics field, our customers expect us to be at the forefront of new technological advances and the E01 option demonstrates Logicube’s commitment to providing innovative and forward-thinking solutions to our customers,” continued Emrani.

The Dossier is the fastest and most feature-rich digital forensic data capture device on the market today, allowing investigators to capture and authenticate at speeds approaching 6GB/min. The Dossier supports SATA and IDE drive formats and will also support SCSI and SAS drives with an optional adapter. Users can capture data from one or two suspect drives to one or two evidence drives. The Dossier supports capture in both native (mirror) and DD image file formats along with the new E01 support.

Over the next few months, Logicube plans on announcing multiple ground-breaking feature enhancements and complementary products all built on the Dossier platform. “The Dossier was designed to be an extremely versatile and scalable forensic tool. We expect that our upcoming additions to the product line will meet and exceed customer expectations and set the standard for their ideal forensic data capture solution.” commented Mr. Emrani.
