Free COFEE Helps Law Enforcement Forensics

Microsoft has announced plans to give away free versions of its COFEE (Computer Online Forensic Evidence Extractor) utility to help law enforcement agencies in cyber-crime investigations. The utility uses digital forensic technologies to help investigators gather evidence of live computer activity at the scene of a crime, regardless of technical expertise. Law enforcement agents with less than 10 minutes training can capture live evidence of illegal activity by inserting a USB device into a computer. The evidence is then preserved for analysis, protecting it from being destroyed when the computer is turned off for moving.
