CAINE 8.0 Blazar: CAINE (Computer Aided INvestigative Environment) is a GNU/Linux distribution based on Ubuntu. It was designed by Italian programmer Nanni Bassetti and offers a complete digital forensic environment. The distribution was updated on October 31, 2016, to version 8.0.
The new release is called “Blazar,” and it is powered by the long-term supported Linux 4.4 kernel and Ubuntu 16.04 (Xenial Xerus). The CAINE 8.0 Blazar operating system , after a year of hard work, comes with UEFI (Unified Extensible Firmware Interface) and secure boot support, and new tools like Systemback, an open-source application for creating system backups.
“The important news is that CAINE 8.0 Blazar can block all devices (e.g. /dev/sda), in Read-Only mode. You can use a tool with a graphical interface called BlockON/OFF. This new method of blocking Write permissions ensures that all disks will be kept intact from malicious processes, because they will be locked in Read-Only mode.”
The distribution also includes the following tools: XAll 1.5, MemDump, XRCed, PEFrame, Tilda, Shrew, RecuperaBit, Gigolo, Jeex, Samba, SQLParse, Yara, wxHexEditor, ADB and LibMobileDevice, PffLib, HashDB, imount, vhdimount, vhdiinfo, iscsitarget, img_map, and vblade. New RBFstab and Mounter, live preview Caja scripts, and a root file system spoofing patch.
Another major change is the addition of a VNC (Virtual Network Computing) server and client, with which users can control the entire operating system from a remote location. Last but not least, CAINE boots much faster than previous versions, and can also run directly in RAM using toram.
