What else can I help you with?
Explain firmware and why firmware is important to forensic investigations?
firmware is a technical name of computer and its accessories like window is a software and the harddisk that stored on computer is firmware.
What is firmware software?
Firmware is the combination of persistent memory and program code and data stored in it. Typical examples of devices containing firmware are traffic lights, consumer appliances, digital watches, computers, computer peripherals, mobile phones, and digital cameras. The firmware contained in these devices provides the control program for the device. Firmware is held in non-volatile memory devices such as ROM, EPROM, or flash memory.
What are Programs stored on rom chips are called?
Programs stored on ROM chips are called firmware. The motherboard stores the keyboard controller support program on the ROM chip.
What did Key Telephone Systems come out of?
KTSs evolved from wired logic and electromechanical operation to stored program or firmware control
Why was the software invented?
The invention of software (aka computer programs) was just one part of the invention of the stored program computer in the 1940s. Without it a stored program computer is no more than a very complex and expensive electrical heater!
Programs stored on ROM are known as?
Firmware
Can firmware operate by itself?
No, firmware is just software stored in read only memory(ROM) and must be fetched and executed by the central processing unit (CPU) like any other software. Firmware has the advantage that it will always be loaded on the computer even after power was turned off and back on, but has the disadvantage that it cannot be updated or corrected when problems are found because ROM cannot be written to.
Hardware and firmware?
Hardware is the mechanical components of a computer including physical RAM chips, CPU, Motherboard, disc drives.Software is the program material, stored on and used by the computer as instructions and data. Generally it can be copied, transferred and manipulated easily.Firmware is software that has been permanently stored on a computer memory chip. Generally the only way of transferring this data, is by moving the chip it is stored on. So you can 'plug in' new data.
What software is used program files do not exist on the hard drive and no configuration data is stored on the hard drive?
Portable Software is used.
When What software is used program files do not exist on the hard drive and no configuration data is stored on the hard drive?
Portable Software is used.
A device driver is typically embedded on firmware that is part of your computer?
A device driver is software that allows the operating system to communicate with hardware devices. While drivers can be stored in firmware, they are often installed on the operating system itself and can be updated independently. Firmware typically refers to low-level software programmed into hardware components, while device drivers serve as a bridge between the OS and the hardware. Therefore, not all device drivers are embedded in firmware, but some can be part of it.
What function does firmware serve in a computer system?
Firmware is a type of software that provides low-level control for a device's specific hardware. It acts as an intermediary between the hardware and higher-level software, enabling the operating system and applications to interact with the hardware components. Typically stored in non-volatile memory, firmware is essential for booting up the system and ensuring that all hardware components function correctly and efficiently. Without firmware, the hardware would not operate as intended.
