Introducing a scalable, automated platform that revolutionizes digital forensics.

Drowning in Digital Data?

Solving a big forensic data problem usually means one thing— Buying a bigger computer.

Not an ideal solution when you’re facing huge data backloads, high I/O processing demands and shrinking bandwidth. Throw in the cost, expandability limitations, and the inability to multitask with an array of forensic software, building bigger isn’t always better.

Truxton Has a Better Way

Distributed Forensic Processing

We believe it takes an army to tackle big data problems. Instead of relying on one overtasked machine and an exhausted analyst, why not split up the work and assign it to the best machines and humans to get the job done?

Impossible? Not at all.

Truxton splits up and automates forensic processing into scalable components that grow to meet expanding needs, and provides a single, multi-user platform for all of your media, no matter what source or program it came from.

The end result?

Traditional forensic tools are often nothing more than a digital file pile or an organized file viewer. That still leaves analysts with a stack of media to manually process the data using keyword searches or an investigative hunch.

Truxton automatically exploits the data and delivers a summary of entities in an easy to understand format— a convenient list of accounts, phone or credit card numbers, passwords, SSIDs, USB identifiers and more. This gives you a head start on finding exactly what you need while eliminating the noise. Check out asample entities reportto see what we mean. Need to dive deeper? No problem. Truxton will let you view File Directories, Artifacts, and Registry Files to search for evidence.

Wouldn’t it be nice if multiple users could work on the same case at the same time? Or if you could send out a file to an off-site Subject Matter Expert for review? Export files to another platform without wrangling a bunch of proprietary code?

Truxton is designed to allow multiple investigators to work on the same media/investigation simultaneously. This lets you to assign tasks and manage workloads to avoid duplication of effort. And when the work is done, Truxton’s open architecture philosophy allows you to take your data into other tools for verification, archiving, or reporting.

A big download is often best run overnight, when your neighbours aren’t competing for internet bandwidth and your PC isn't in constant use. It isn't the best option environmentally, but most people usually decide that it's better to take the hit on the electricity bill rather than stay up until the small hours.

To prevent your PC going into hibernation and prematurely terminating the download, you need to go into Power Options and disable hibernate and sleep. The problem is that then the computer remains on at full power after the download is done and you also need to go back and put the settings right afterwards.

Coffee is a simple program that prevents your PC from going into hibernation while there's network activity on a specified connection. It's pretty easy to get up and running. Once installed and launched, just select the network adapter that you want to monitor and pick the minimum download rate you want to use to keep the computer awake. Only if the network transfer rate drops below this will Coffee let your computer hibernate.

You can also prevent hibernation completely by clicking Sleep Blockers – this may need confirming via User Account Control. A new window called Milk opens, showing any processes that are using the network connection and ultimately preventing Windows from being able to sleep. Just press [F5] here to refresh the details shown.

To return your PC to its normal power settings, allowing it to sleep or hibernate again as necessary, just close the Milk window followed by the main Coffee window.

Version 1.0.4:
- Fix: When you change driver/network card and you restart Coffee it will now not fail with a .NET error.

Verdict:

Coffee offers a good way to temporarily keep your PC awake during network transfers without messing around in power settings.
