In his blog post, Matt walks though step by step how to image a Mac using the FTK Imager command line tool for Mac OS X operating systems. As such, I wanted to cover how to do a live image using the dd command as another option.

When time is short and you need to acquire entire volumes or selected individual folders, EnCase Forensic Imager is your tool of choice. Based on trusted, industry-standard EnCase Forensic technology, EnCase Forensic Imager: • Is free to download and use • Requires no installation • Is a standalone product that does not require an EnCase Forensic license • Enables acquisition of local drives (network drives are not able to be acquired with Imager) • Provides easy viewing and browsing of potential evidence files, including folder structures and file metadata • Can be deployed via USB stick and used to perform acquisition of a live device.

That lists the volumes, among them will be the virtual volume that represents the decrypted volume. At this point, you are free to use whatever tool you wish to image the decrypted volume, this could be either FTK imager for mac or just plain old ‘dd’. You can add another disk drive to your machine as the destination for your decrypted image. Or use a combination of dd and netcat to stream the data back to the host machine (if you are on VM). TIP: If you use dd, you will need to specify the source disk as ‘/dev/rdiskxx’ instead of ‘/dev/diskxx’. This is a mac convention, you cannot access /dev/diskxx as it will always report as busy and fail. Khatri, i'm facing a very strange situation.

I had 2 apple computers that i acquired in target disk mode. One was encrypted for sure because as soon as the virtualized OSX Lion saw it asked for the password to unlock it.

The second one is driving me mad because if i attach it to the OSX virtual machine (Arsenal and all the rest.) i can browse its content with no problem but outside this environment no forensic tool is able to 'understand' this second image. I tried X-Ways, Autopsy, OSForensic, various linux flavours but the result is always the same only EFI and Boot partition are correctly interpreted while the one that holds data (998gb out of 1tb) is seen as 'raw'. The password for this second computer is not the same as the other one (i tried booting both of them) and to be absolutely sure i used the keychain manager in the OSX virtual machine to delete the password that i had to use for the first computer but the result is always the same, inside OSX the drive is fully accessible but outside no tool i've acces to is able to read it.

Have you ever seen something similar? I have a question. We have the MAC VM running and created an emulated disk(encrypted image) in Encase which showed it was mounted on Physical Device X. When we tried to run the VM with the physical disk (encrypted), it shows the error 'The operation on file '. PhysicalDriveX' failed.' When I continue to open the guest system and check using diskutil list, I can see the apple corestorage. But if I try the diskutil corestorage list, the physical volume status is failed and logical volume group shows initializing.

Would you happen to know any solution for this?
