Question:
- You are a forensics investigator at NOOK Inc. You have been conducting research about the Linux OS. You are explaining to your teammates the information that you have learned. The Linux file system has a hierarchical structure similar to other computer operating system file systems. The Linux file systems are also radically different from other operating systems. We learned that Microsoft Windows OS uses the registry and different hives to manage and maintain the operating system. There are no registry or hives in the Linux operating system, and Linux treats everything as a file in the operating system. There is one directory that is very strange in the Linux—the /proc directory.
- For your initial post, discuss the following:
- Describe the /proc directory; explain why it is different from another directory in the Linux OS, as well as its importance; and provide an explanation of some of the artifacts that can be collected from the /proc directory.
