The objective of this project is to build a digital forensics system that monitors and records USB device activity on a system. It helps investigators track unauthorized data transfers and identify removable storage usage during security incidents.
Study how operating systems detect and log USB device connections.
Research risks associated with removable media in cybersecurity breaches.
Design a system to capture USB connection events with timestamps.
Implement logging of device identifiers such as serial numbers and manufacturer details.
Track file copy, modification, and deletion activities linked to USB devices.
Create alert mechanisms for unauthorized device usage.
Store logs securely with tamper-proof mechanisms.
Generate forensic reports detailing device activity timelines.
Test the system with multiple USB devices and simulated data transfers.
Document findings and recommend preventive security measures.
