PHONE HOME SERVLET IN A COMPUTER INVESTIGATION SYSTEM

摘要

A system for conducting forensic investigations is provided which includes a target device, an examining device, and a server. The target device includes a phone home servlet which is configured to periodically transmit to the server a request for connection. The server grants the request for connection if there is an investigation request pending from the examining device for the requesting target device. If no such request is pending, the request is denied. The servlet is programmed with various phone home parameters for determining whether the target device should transmit the request for connection.
