Here are the steps a technician should take: Isolate the workstation: Disconnect it from the network to prevent further data compromise. Document the state of the workstation: Take photos or videos to record its physical state, including any external devices connected to it. Create a forensic image: Create a bit-by-bit copy of the entire hard drive to preserve the original data. Secure the image: Store the image in a secure location, ensuring its integrity and confidentiality. Document the entire process: Maintain detailed records of all actions taken, including timestamps, personnel involved, and any changes made to the workstation. By following these steps, the technician can ensure the integrity of the evidence and facilitate a thorough forensic investigation. Google Gemini
