LEF EFS Encryption Enhancement
There were different scenarios from previous EnCase versions for adding EFS files to a logical
evidence (L01) case:
1.
The file is encrypted and the $EFS stream is missing from the same folder within the L01: the
file cannot be decrypted.
2.
The file is
encrypted and the
$EFS stream is in the same folder:
the file can be decrypted
(except for the remainder of the file, if any).
3.
The file is decrypted and the $EFS stream is in the same folder: the file will be decrypted
twice. The file is
decrypted and the
$EFS stream is missing:
the file remains decrypted.
4.
The file is
decrypted and the
$EFS stream is in the same folder:
the file will be decrypted
twice.
All of the above scenarios are now handled gracefully because the $EFS stream is added
internally.
WinEn
WinEn is a standalone command line utility that captures the physical memory on a live
computer running a Windows operating system (Windows 2000 or higher). The physical
memory image captured by WinEn is placed in a standard evidence file, along with the user‐
supplied options and information.
WinEn runs from a command prompt on the computer where you want to capture the memory.
WinEn has a very small footprint in memory, and it is typically run from a removable device
such as a thumb drive. Although this method makes minor changes to the computer running
WinEn, this is the most effective way to capture physical memory before shutting down a
computer.
