I thought D) Secure Authentication for EnCase was the way to go?

Definitely B) EnCase with a hardware write blocker. That's the standard!

I’m a bit confused; I thought Linux Live CD was more about recovery than secure imaging over a network.

I practiced a question similar to this, and I think the answer was about using a secure method, which might lean towards SAFE or EnCase.

I feel like we discussed SAFE in class, but I can't recall if it specifically relates to network imaging or just general security.

I think I remember something about EnCase being a standard tool for forensic investigations, but I'm not sure if the hardware write blocker is the main focus here.
