Re: [sleuthkit-users] Autopsy over SSL?

[Brooks, P. <pre...@tw...>]

I have done this, in fact, I basically setup apache as a reverse proxy =
server and used digital certificate authentication to provide another =
layer of protection before reaching the autopsy server. =20

I have switched companies, so I don't have the mini-howto that I wrote =
for internal use at that time.  I could put it together again, but it =
essentially just discusses how to configure apache for digital =
certificate authentication and as a reverse proxy back to localhost.

Subject: [sleuthkit-users] Autopsy over SSL?

I need to be able to use Autopsy over a secure encrypted connection =
between the client machine (where the browser is running) and the server =
(where autopsy is running).  I'm assuming I will need Apache installed =
on the server, in order to use SSL over port 443 (and then change the =
port number on the autopsy command line).  But before I proceed on that =
assumption, I wanted to check if there were other options, and if so, =
what those might be.
I've searched the Informer archives, and Googled this, but didn't find =
anything applicable.

I know the image file could be transferred securely from server to =
client, and then simply run Autopsy locally (thereby avoiding the =
issue), but that doesn't meet the requirements of the situation.
