Live View 0.6: Forensics Virtualization Tool

This is definitely a tool with narrow interest. But, I found it interesting, so here it is...

Live View 0.6

Live View comes from CERT (the cyber security group over at Carnegie Mellon). Rather than paraphase, here's a direct quote from their site describing it: Live View is a Java-based graphical forensics tool that creates a VMware virtual machine out of a raw (dd-style) disk image or physical disk. This allows the forensic examiner to "boot up" the image or disk and gain an interactive, user-level perspective of the environment, all without modifying the underlying image or disk.

I haven't had to use it yet. But, I'm glad I read about it recently and can tuck away in my mental notebook just in case...
