Which incident response tool is primarily used for creating a bit-by-bit copy of a hard drive for later analysis, ensuring the preservation of data in its original state?
Security information and event management (SIEM) system
Intrusion detection system (IDS)
Automated incident response platform
Digital forensic imaging tool
A digital forensic imaging tool is designed to create a sector-by-sector copy of a storage media, often referred to as a bit-by-bit or byte-by-byte copy, which is essential for ensuring that the original data remains unchanged for further forensic analysis. This meticulous preservation is vital so as to maintain the integrity of the evidence for legal and analysis purposes. Other options listed are indeed incident response tools; however, their primary functions differ. Intrusion detection systems (IDS) are used for monitoring network traffic for suspicious activity, not for imaging drives. SIEM systems provide real-time analysis of security alerts generated by applications and network hardware, not drive imaging. Automated incident response platforms are used to coordinate response steps following detection, not drive imaging.
