Many Windows®-based disk image mounting solutions mount the contents of disk images as shares or partitions, rather than complete (aka "physical or "real") disks, which limits their usefulness to digital forensics practitioners and others. Arsenal Image Mounter mounts the contents of disk images as complete disks in Windows, allowing users to benefit from disk-specific features like integration with Disk Manager, launching virtual machines (and then bypassing Windows authentication and DPAPI), managing BitLocker-protected volumes, mounting Volume Shadow Copies, and more.
"Arsenal Image Mounter’s ability to mount a disk image and launch it into a VM has worked flawlessly since our department purchased the software over the past year. Being able to interact with a subject’s Windows environment as the user would have has helped our non-technical investigation teams gain a better understanding of a subject’s lifestyle, interests, and technical ability. In one such case, with appropriate legal approval, we used AIM to mount an image, launch a VM, expose it to the Internet, and connect to a service with the subject’s previously logged-in and authenticated application in order to secure and obtain over 1TB of CSAE material. Mark and his team have always been very responsive to any queries or technical issues faced along the way."

Significantly Enhanced My Ability
"The advanced features provided by Arsenal Image Mounter have significantly enhanced my ability to retrieve usernames and passwords stored by web browsers... and with remarkable speed. The new PIN brute force that works with Hello PINs means I no longer have to spend time manually extracting and cracking to get access to secrets, and within seconds I can be logged into a virtual machine with DPAPI-protected data fully unlocked. AIM’s latest functionality helps us access additional exhibits sooner, for example by using recovered PINs and other secrets against locked mobile phones."
