Helix is a customized distribution of Ubuntu Linux. Helix is more than just a bootable live CD. You can still boot into a customized Linux environment that includes customized linux kernels, excellent hardware detection and many applications dedicated to Incident Response and Forensics.

Helix has been modified very carefully to NOT touch the host computer in any way and it is forensically sound. Helix wil not auto mount swap space, or auto mount any attached devices. Helix also has a special live side for Incident Response and Forensics.

Helix focuses on Incident Response & Forensics tools. It is meant to be used by individuals who have a sound understanding of Incident Response and Forensic techniques.

Helix, the easy-to-use, fast and powerful live cd has everything you need for your live forensics, incident response and e-dsicovery requirements.

Helix is available as a free downloadable ISO image. It fits on a 700MB CD-R(W). Burn it with your favorite cd-writing software and then boot from the CD or insert it into a running system. Since Helix is free it comes without any formal support.
