Black Harrier Linux




BLACK HARRIER IS A LINUX DISTRIBUTION DEVELOPED TO BE A FLEXIBLE, EXTENSIBLE
OPERATING SYSTEM FOR DIGITAL FORENSICS, CYBER-INCIDENT RESPONSE, AND TECHNOLOGY
SUPPORT.

This latest iteration of a Linux distro that has taken many forms over the past
17+ years, Black Harrier Linux was initially developed to be a digital
Jack-of-all-trades, initially focusing on IT support and system administration,
later transitioning to supporting digital forensics / incident response (DFIR)
and related technical analysis.

Based on Linux Mint 64-bit MATE-Desktop, Black Harrier is crafted to be a handy
live OS that you can keep on your key fob for ad-hoc or install on the hardware
of your choice for everyday use.

Live Booting – Born out of a need to live boot a computer and access data
without worrying about the computer making things difficult.

Extensible – Nothing is permanent except change. The ability to add tools or
make persistent configuration changes to the live system was the driving factor
for avoiding immutable formats like ISO files.

Replication – Sometimes, you need more than one copy of a boot disk. The
bhreplicate script was created to quickly make a copy of the complete live
system to new target media.

Forensically Safe[r] – Whether making a machine image itself or borrowing a
laptop from a friend, drive auto-mount and hardware clock updates are disabled
in ‘portable’ mode.

Note: There is no software write-block installed. You can modify or destroy data
if you take actions to do so either intentionally or accidentally. Use this
distro with care and be thoughtful. You are responsible for your actions and any
data destruction resulting from using Black Harrier. As the end user, you alone
are responsible for testing and validating this distribution.

The build script and instructions can be found on the Github project page.
