How does F-Response Enterprise work?
F-Response Enterprise uses a patented remote connectivity technology that creates an authenticated, read-only connection between the examiner's computer and the computer(s) under inspection over any network. F-Response presents the drives, volumes, or memory (Windows only) of that machine as local, read-only, physical devices on your examiner machine.
F-Response Enterprise is the unlimited covert subject version of F-Response. Simply put, this means with F-Response Enterprise edition there is no limit to the number of remote covert subjects at any given time. In addition, F-Response Enterprise deployment and connectivity was designed to be covert and efficient allowing the investigator to access multiple machines quickly without concern for alerting the end user.
