Bootable CD-ROMS - Linux Based

Last updated 1 year ago

There are many Linux based bootable CD-ROMs (or Live CDs) with forensic tools, such as:

  • - linux distro with many forensic GUI tools, including Autopsy.

  • is a customized distribution of the Ubuntu live Linux CD.

  • is an Italian GNU/Linux live distribution created as a Digital Forensics project (Installation and resolving Stuck Boot-Repair).

  • is an open-source, Debian-based Linux distribution geared towards various information security tasks, such as Penetration Testing, Security Research, Computer Forensics and Reverse Engineering

Create a bootable CD-ROM:

  • find and download the ISO file.

  • use a CD-burnin program to write the ISO file to the CD.
