调查存储即服务云平台：pCloud案例研究
Investigating Storage as a Service Cloud Platform: pCloud as a Case Study
摘要：
由于云存储的灵活性，可负担性和便携性，个人和公司将云存储视为当今首选的存储介质之一。这吸引了网络犯罪分子的目光，因为许多有价值的信息，如用户凭据和私人客户记录存储在云中。犯罪分子有很多方法可以危害云服务;从非技术攻击方法（如社会工程）到部署高级恶意软件。因此，网络取证检查员必须配备并了解调查不同云平台的最佳方法。在本章中，使用pCloud（一种广泛使用的在线云存储服务）作为案例研究，我们详细介绍了在取证检查期间可检索的不同类型的文物。我们在运行四种流行操作系统的四种不同虚拟机上进行了实验：64位Windows 8，Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS，Android 4.4.2和iOS 8.1。此外，我们还研究了两种不同Web浏览器的云残留：Windows上的Internet Explorer和Google Chrome。我们相信，我们的研究将提高数字取证人员对如何进行云存储取证检查的认识。
英文摘要：
Due to the flexibility, affordability and portability of cloud storage, individuals and companies envisage the cloud storage as one of the preferred storage media nowadays. This attracts the eyes of cyber criminals, since much valuable informa- tion such as user credentials, and private customer records are stored in the cloud. There are many ways for criminals to compromise cloud services; ranging from non-technical attack methods, such as social engineering, to deploying advanced malwares. Therefore, it is vital for cyber forensics examiners to be equipped and informed about best methods for investigation of different cloud platforms. In this chapter, using pCloud (an extensively used online cloud storage service) as a case study, and we elaborate on different kinds of artefacts retrievable during a forensics examination. We carried out our experiments on four different virtual machines running four popular operating systems: a 64 bit Windows 8, Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS, Android 4.4.2, and iOS 8.1. Moreover, we examined cloud remnants of two different web browsers: Internet Explorer and Google Chrome on Windows. We believe that our study would promote awareness among digital forensic examiners on how to conduct cloud storage forensics examination.
