Mount Image Pro

Mounting a disk image on your computer is something that we all have done at least once, and though everything happens virtually, it's not much different than inserting a CD into the drive bay — at least functionally. This has also impacted forensics, which is why forensic image file software exists on the market.

Understandably, forensics requires a secure environment when mounting and managing disk image files, which a tool such as Mount Image Pro can provide. Aside from that, the program offers wide support for a variety of extensions, which is always a welcome addition.

The software allows users to mount images of all manners on their computer. It should be first noted, however, that you'll need to apply on the developer's website to receive a Trial key. As this is a tool designed mainly for forensics duties, users can expect some additional functionality you wouldn't encounter on a more casual user-focused program.

Even so, the controls are easy to understand, and the interface is a functional one, so navigating through the program won't be a tough ask.

Although the program cannot create disk image files for you, it can enable users to work with existing files in more than one way. For instance, you can access deleted files, and even look through the image's unallocated clusters via the tool.

Users can take advantage of the program's ability to mount a disk image as read-only, as well as look through the system files of any given image. Mounting an image without requiring security permissions from the operating system is also possible. Drives locked with a security mechanism, such as BitLocker, can be accessed through the software. Among other things, users are able to combine the program with other third-party applications, and launch them over the mounted image.

The program can handle remote disks, no matter whether they're physical or logical.

Mount Image Pro is a program designed for users to work with their disk images in a secure environment, whilst also providing a number of functions power users will appreciate.
