Built in a ruggedized case to work in even the toughest environments the Image MASSter^TM Solo-4 RUGGEDIZED is a high speed forensic duplicator that offers investigators the ability to image one "Suspect" to two "Evidence" drives or two separate "Suspect" drives to individual "Evidence" copies simultaneously. The ruggedized version of the IMSolo-4 Hard Drive Forensic Duplicator features the same High Speed Performance, Flexible Image Formats and reliability as the original Hand Held design. Built in a shock absorbent case, featuring cable-free SAS/SATA/USB connectors with "slide-in" hard drive slots for Suspect and Evidence Drives. It authenticates with SHA-1, SHA-2 and MD5. It also supports IDE, RAID, e-SATA drives as well as a variety of Micro Media cards. All "Evidence" can be saved as 100% copies, Linux DD images or E01 image files. All "Evidence" drives can be encrypted "on-the-fly" during the acquisition process to protect sensitive data during transportation or storage. The unit also offers a built-in Gigabit Ethernet connection allowing users to upload images to Storage Area Networks (SAN) for the purpose of processing and archiving images. Additionally user can maximize resources by utilizing the Solo-4 RUGGEDIZED as a platform to perform cell phone acquisition utilizing third party applications such as Paraben's Device Seizure, XRY and more.

Image MASSter™ Solo-4 Internet/Network Connection Disclaimer

Intelligent Computer Solutions, Inc. (ICS) assumes no liability for the security of the customer’s computer/network systems. ICS assumes no liability for the security of the Image MASSter™ Solo-4 when it is connected to either the Internet or another Network. Utilizing the Image MASSter™ Solo-4 for to upload data to a network requires the unit to be connected to the network and this may cause a risk of the system being compromised. The user is responsible for taking the necessary steps to ensure the safety of both the Image MASSter™ Solo-4 and the network in use when the unit is utilized to upload data to a network. The security of the Image MASSter™ Solo-4 when connected to the Internet or a network relies on the user’s discretion; however, ICS recommends, at a minimum, to the user to take the following steps:

The Image MASSter™ Solo-4 is set to have Internet Connection and Automatic Windows Updates disabled as default. Users will need to enable Internet Connection when uploading data to a network. It is highly recommended that the user install anti-virus and firewall Hardware Device protection prior to connecting the Image MASSter™ Solo-4 to either the Internet or a network. A lesser protection can be achieved with personal firewall software. Continuously running an updated version of anti-virus software with the Image MASSter™ Solo-4 may help prevent an intrusion into the unit or network. ICS recommends updating the anti-virus software program every time the Image MASSter™ Solo-4 is connected to the Internet or a network. Users should always utilize a clean (scanned for viruses) USB Thumb Drive when updating the Image MASSter™ Solo-4 unit Software or Firmware. Users should ONLY connect the Image MASSter™ Solo-4 to a network when uploading data. It is imperative for users to REMOVE the Image MASSter™ Solo-4 connection when not actively performing these tasks.

These recommendations are provided to the user as a reference; however ICS cannot assure that the Image MASSter™ Solo-4 will not become compromised when connected to the Internet or a network. User assumes all responsibility for the data and security of the Network.

Features

Extreme Speed: Built to work with the fastest hard drives available, Solo-4 Ruggedized captures, authenticates, and sanitizes at full SATA-2 speed (18GB/min. top capability) This technology not only allows the unit to take advantage of today’s fastest hard drive speeds but also allows the user to be prepared for tomorrow’s future hard drive improvements. Real world speeds of 13GB/min for Solid State Drives.
Ruggedized Design: The new Solo-4 Ruggedized unit comes built in a shock absorbent case that allows investigators to easily carry, store and utilize the unit in even the toughest environments. The unit is simple to transport, set-up and store and easily fits under a standard airplane seat. An optional Rechargeable Compact Battery will enable the device to be used in the field.
Cable-less Hard Drive Slots: Unit features two “slide-in” cable-less hard drive slots for the Suspect Drives as well as two “slide-in” cable-less hard drive slots for the Evidence Drives.
Multiple “Suspect”/ Evidence” Connections: 2 SATA/SAS connections and 2 USB 2.0 connections. Operator can choose to use either the SATA/SAS connection or the USB connection for each of the two “Suspect” positions. Unit features built–in support for imaging of a RAID drive pair (0, 1, JBOD).Optional drive adapters for 1.8”, 2.5”, ZIF, and proprietary Interface / Laptop drives, and Micro Media Formats including Compact Flash, Memory Sticks, SD, Micro SD, Multi Media card, etc.SCSI drives can be acquired utilizing a USB to SCSI adapter (Low speed) or by purchasing the Expansion Box or Storage Box Option (High Speed). Cross Copy Support allows user to image any “Suspect” drive interface to any “Evidence” drive interface (ie. IDE “Suspect” drive to SATA “Evidence” drive). All Suspect connections are permanently write-protected at all times to prevent changing Suspect Data (This feature cannot be disabled). Unit features “Suspect” cable-less insertion for native SAS/SATA drives. One SAS/SATA cable provided to be used with other drive interface adapters (ie. IDE, ZIFF)
Operational Modes: Single Copy Mode – Captures one “Suspect” drive to one “Evidence” drive (1:1), Multiple Copy Mode - Captures one “Suspect” to two “Evidence” drives (1:2) Parallel Copy - Captures two “Suspect” drives to two “Evidence” drives (1:1 & 1:1),Drive Wiping and Sanitization (Single Pass, DoD Standard, or Secure Erase), Hardware Accelerated Drive Hashing using SHA-1 and SHA-2. Standard MD-5 Hashing also included. Upload “Suspect” images to Network Storage and/or any attached Network Share through the native 1 Gigabit Ethernet Connection. All processes are done simultaneously with minimal speed degradation.
Multiple Imaging Formats: 100% Copy: Bit-for-bit copy, Supports storing single or multiple DD images (industry standard) on a single “Evidence” Hard Drive or USB storage device. User can define the size of the Linux DD image segments. Supports imaging to Encase® Forensics image file. Optional IQ Copy can capture actual “data only” greatly reducing the time needed to make a non-forensic copy for back up or mass duplication purposes
“On the Fly” Drive Image Encryption: Built-in DiskCypher technology allows the full encryption (AES 192/256 ECB) of Forensic Images. The process is done without speed degradation during the acquisition phase.
Drive Spanning: Solo-4 Ruggedized allows for the imaging from one large “Suspect” drive to two smaller “Evidence” drives
Image Restore: Restore a previously captured DD or E01 image to a 100% fully bootable working copy
Preview Suspect Data Directly on the Unit: Review active files on the Suspect Drive utilizing third party file viewer that allows previewing Word, Excel, PDF, text or multimedia (pictures, video and audio) files prior to seizing the data.
Logs and Auditing: A complete and accurate, customizable audit report of all unit processes is provided in an unalterable PDF file that can be exported via USB connection.
Cell Phone Imaging Capable: Solo-4 Ruggedized can be used to acquire cell phones in the field utilizing 3rd party cell phone acquisition software programs. Solo-4 Ruggedized currently ships ready to support Mycro Systemation XRY and Paraben’s Device Seizure.
