In: Forensics , Helix , LiveCD

24 September 2008

Helix is a customized distribution of Ubuntu Linux. Helix is more than
just a bootable live CD. You can still boot into a customized Linux
environment that includes customized linux kernels, excellent hardware
detection and many applications dedicated to Incident Response and
Forensics.

Helix has been modified very carefully to NOT touch the host computer
in any way and it is forensically sound. Helix wil not auto mount swap
space, or auto mount any attached devices. Helix also has a special
live side for Incident Response and Forensics.

Helix focuses on Incident Response & Forensics tools. It is meant to
be used by individuals who have a sound understanding of Incident
Response and Forensic techniques.
