State and Local Law Enforcement Agencies cannot afford the small scale digital device forensic tools that exist, do not have adequate small scale digital device forensic tools, do not have a comprehensive knowledge of how the small scale digital device forensic tools work, and do not have a central repository for sharing their experiences about the small scale digital device forensic tools. To this end, and to fill this void, it is our objective to build a cost-effective forensic tool that acquires evidence from small scale digital devices; presents and explains the protocols and the specific commands used to acquire and interpret evidence as the evidence is acquired and interpreted; and report or export the evidence for further analysis. Additionally, development will include a central repository for the tools users to communicate specifically regarding the use, success, and education of the protocols and their application.
