Ftklipse - Design and Implementation of an Extendable Computer Forensics Environment: Software Requirements Specification Document

The purpose behind this article is to describe the features of Ftklipse, an extendable platform for computer forensics. This document designed to provide a detailed specification for the developers of Ftklipse. Ftklipse is a thick-client solution for forensics investigation. It is designed to collect and preserve evidence, to analyze it and to report on it. It supports chain of custody management, access control policies, and batch operation of its included tools in order to facilitate and accelerate the investigation. The environment itself and its tools are configurable as well and is based on Eclipse.

Ftklipse - Design and Implementation of an Extendable Computer Forensics Environment: Specification Design Document

The purpose of this work is to design and implement a plugin-based environment that allows to integrate forensic tools working together to support programming tasks and addition of new tools. Integration is done through GUI components. The end-system environment must have user friendly GUI, configuration capabilities, plug-in capabilities to insert/inject new tools, case management, and chain of custody capabilities, along with evidence gathering capabilities, evidence preservation capabilities, and, finally report generation capabilities. A subset of these requirements has been implemented in Ftklipse, an open-source project, which is detailed throughout the rest of this document.
