- Memory
- Network traffic
- Mobile devices

How to Apply the Tool Category in Performing the Forensic Testing
The data acquisition tools would be used to collect data from the Google corporate network and systems. This data would then be analyzed by forensic analysts to look for evidence of a security breach or other malicious activity.
The data acquisition tools would be used in a variety of ways, including:
- Collecting data from all of the Google corporate systems
- Collecting data from specific systems that are suspected of being involved in a security breach
- Collecting data from systems that have been compromised by malware
The data acquisition tools would be used in accordance with the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Computer Forensic Tool Testing (CFTT) guidelines. These guidelines provide guidance on the selection, use, and evaluation of forensic tools.
