Could VFC be doing more for you?

 

In order to fully understand the innovative concept of Virtual Forensic Computing (VFC) and how to extend the VFC method to efficiently deal with 'troublesome' machines, we strongly recommend that at least one investigator from each computer department attend MD5's one-day training course, "The VFC Method".

 

The vital characteristic of using VFC is the ability to experience the subject system in almost the same environment as was the original. VFC will seamlessly create a virtual environment for your subject system within seconds, and in over 95% of cases, this virtual machine can be started without issue within a few minutes.

 

With extended use of VFC, you will encounter machines that either fail to start on first attempt or which require logon passwords. The majority of known boot issues relate to changes in the underlying hardware, such as from a physical laptop computer to a virtual desktop computer. The VFC method encompasses a host of known issues and how to resolve them, including activation and password retrieval.

 

If you have experienced your virtual machine encountering any of the following, attending one of our training days would be particularly beneficial:

 

  • A frozen black screen
  • Windows activation issues
  • Unexpected Blue Screen of Death
  • Logon password problems
  • The need to add additional hard disks

 

Training days are held at MD5's Head Office in Normanton, West Yorkshire which is easily accessible via the M62.

 

The cost per delegate for 'The VFC Method' one day training package is £300. This includes a structured, informative day that presents the methodology and capability of VFC using both an instructor-led and workshop approach.
