Design and Implementation of Windows Based Computer Forensics Management System

Computer management in campus had always been the core task for computer teachers. With the upgrades of computer equipment and network speed, the network traffic showed a higher pattern than before. However, the students’ perception of computer system safety and intellectual property right did not improve accordingly, which resulted in several information safety issues, and the Internet managing employees would receive warning letters frequently. Since most schools in Taiwan adopted MS-Windows as the main operating system, this research developed an integration system for platforms of information safety forensics, with expectation to take use of this sound tool to assist in data collection of forensics-related tasks in campus, and prevent from computer crimes, or even provided forensics evidences for governmental entity. This research took MS-Windows as development platform, to adopt free digital forensics tools to come up with a Chinese localization version of computer forensics management system with automatic data collecting process, and may produce and analyze the image file with Live DVD/USB, to effectively record and manage the relative problems of campus computer usage, and also served as the data source for computer abuse or crime.
