The practice is useful when dealing with Encrypting File Systems, for example, where the encryption keys may be collected and, in some instances, the logical hard drive volume may be imaged (known as a live acquisition) before the computer is shut down.[8]Deleted filesA common technique used in computer forensics is the recovery of deleted files. Modern forensic software have their own tools for recovering or carving out deleted data.[9] Most operating systems and file systems do not always erase physical file data, allowing it to be reconstructed from the physical disk sectors.
