System Baselining -- A Forensic Perspective
This paper defines baselining terminology, explains the mechanics
of baselining, compares and contrasts different baselining techniques,
and describes FTimes -- a system baselining and evidence collection
tool. The paper also explores some of the criteria that evidence
collection tools and techniques must satisfy if they are going to
support prosecutions. In closing, it presents a pair of war stories
that are typical of the times.
