DIGITAL FORENSICS
Belkasoft Live RAM Capturer is a forensic tool that is free of
charge and helps in consistently extracting the volatile memory
of the computer even with an active
debugging system. It has a 32-bit and 64 bits builds purposed at
maximizing the footprint of the tool. “The captured memory
dumps using this tool can be
analyzed in Belkasoft Evidence Center with Lie RAM Analysis”
(Dave, et al., 2014). When weighed against the other volatile
memory capturing tools, this tool has
different design goals and is also compatible with all windows
versions. Mandiant RedLine is a leading free of charge tool that
provides host investigative capacity
to the users alerting them of any malicious activity signs
through an analysis of memory and file as well as the threat
assessment profile development (Prasanthi,
2016). This tool is used in collecting all data regarding the
host’s running processes, the driers from memory and it also
collects other data such as metadata, services,
among others intending to build an accurate report. With this
tool, it is possible to audit and collects all running processes
and driers from the memory, file system,
web history among others in a thorough manner. One can,
therefore, be able to with ease restructure memory analysis with
a workflow that is proven for malware
analysis basing on relative precedence. And also, it is possible
to perform IOC analysis. It is automatically configured to

collect the data that is required in
performing IOC analysis and an IOC hit result review. When
collecting the above best tools from a wide range of options, I
have considered affordability, accessibility,
and accountability.

Assignment Tasks
Case Study
FARAMIL S.A.O.G. is a company based in Ubar (Oman) that
makes mechanical components for
trucks. The production and storage are both based in Ubar. It
has just received an order from a
multinational to start a mass-production of all the front brakes
of a new model truck that is about
to be launched. According to the tender, FARAMIL S.A.O.G.
must supply 1200 brake units a day
(600 correspond to part code PS3476FRT543789DR, for the

right front wheels of the vehicle and
600 correspond to part code PS3476FRT543789IZ for the left
front wheels). The weight of these
brake units is 14.5 kgs each (incl. box).
The goods must be supplied each working day from Saturday to
Thursday in the factory that the
multinational has in Ubar, Oman. The initial duration of the
contract is set at one year (in other
words, 249 deliveries). Once the brakes have been
manufactured, they are packed in reusable
parallelepiped plastic boxes adapted to the component, with a
lid, and outside dimensions of 30
x 40 x 25 cm (the last measurement corresponds to the height).
Each box can hold a complete
set of brake equipment.
Independently of the labelling, the boxes are yellow or orange
corresponding to the right or the
left wheel, to make it easy to work with in logistics and sales.
The boxes will be stacked on wooden
pallets (europallets) measuring 120 x 80 x 15 cm. The weight of
the pallets is 10 kgs per pallet.
The boxes are stacked in layers separated by a 6mm thick sheet
of plywood 120 cm x 80 cm x

0.6 cm thick. The pallets may not be stacked on top of each
other. Once the pallet is fully loaded,
it is wrapped. The weight of both foil and sheets is negligible.
The maximum height of the pallets is limited to 150 cm since
this is the size of the space for pallets
in their dynamic shelves in the FARAMIL S.A.O.G. warehouse.
However, FARAMIL S.A.O.G. has
a problem in achieving this major contract: the production plant
in Ubar is not equipped to perform
the hardening treatment required by all the brakes and has to
subcontract this operation to another
company.
There is a company in Saudi Arabia called MEDIBRAKE that
can apply this treatment in Medina,
Saudi Arabia.
FARAMIL and MEDIBRAKE have already reached a pre-
agreement by which the amount of the
product required every day will be delivered to the factory
designated for treatment and will then

be returned duly treated after two days to be repacked and
palletised in the same conditions as
when it was delivered. The Logistics Manager of FARAMIL is
prepared to organise the transport
in light of the operating conditions. To do this, he has contacted
different logistics service providers
and has asked them to bid for the contract.
The logistics operator must collect the product every day at
FARAMIL and transport them to the
MEDIBRAKE plant in Medina (Saudi Arabia) and collect the
treated product there to take it back
to Ubar (Oman).
In addition, the logistic manager of FARAMIL S.A.O.G. will
take along the winning logistics
operator to help him to convince the multinational of the
logistical viability of the process.
By FARAMIL accepted modes of transport
The following modes of transport are available for this concept:

Airlines:
There is a daily flight from Salalah (Oman) to Jeddah (Saudi
Arabia) v.v. what is also open for
transport of cargo.
The service will be executed by a Boeing 787 what can carry
ULD’s types LD4 and LD11.
Shortsea:
There is a daily ferry service between Salalah (Oman to Jeddah)
Saudi Arabia
v.v. what is open for containers and Ro-Ro. (non-dangerous
goods). Closing
time for acceptation the container before departure is 6h.
The sailing distance is 1300Nm.
Road:
The current situation in Yemen is not stable. Waiting time at the
borders is from 6-48 hours but
can change rapidly. During the nights it is unsafe to drive
outside cities.

Other data for the exercise:
Containers:
The weights of the containers are:
max payload is excl. container weight
Measure of the containers:
All containers either ISO or standardized.
Road transport:
The maximum tons we can transport in both Saudi Arabia and
Oman by road is 32 tons.
The weight of the truck is
-trailer + chassis: 15 tons
In case of intermodal transport both Oman and Saudi Arabia
accept 10% (3 tons) extra gross

weight within road transport.
Technical data of a truck:
No of axles: 5
No. of tyres: 12
Max. payload: 32 tons
Line haul price per km is: OMR 0.44
Pre- posthaulage price in Oman is OMR 0.60 per km.
Pre- posthaulage price in Saudi Arabia is SAR 4.3 per km.
Prices are incl.

Important Policies to be followed
1. Student Academic Integrity Policy*:
MEC upholds the spirit of academic integrity in all forms of
academic work and any form of violation
of academic integrity shall invite severe penalty. Any benefit
obtained by indulging in the act of
violation of academic integrity shall be cancelled.
All cases of violation of academic integrity on the part of the
student shall fall under any of the below
mentioned categories:
1. Plagiarism

2. Malpractice
3. Ghost Writing
4. Collusion
5. Other cases
If the student fails a module and has a proven case of academic
integrity violation in this module, the
student is required to re-register the module. This is applicable
to first and second offenders of
plagiarism.
1. Plagiarism
A. First offence of plagiarism
I. If a student is caught first time in an act of plagiarism during
his/her course of study in
any assignment other than project work, the student will be
allowed to re-submit the
assignment once, within a maximum period of one week.
However, a penalty of
deduction of 25% of the marks obtained for the resubmitted
work will be imposed.
II. Period of re-submission: The student will have to re-submit
the work one week from the

date he or she is advised to re-submit.
III. If the re-submitted work is also found to be plagiarized,
then that assessment will be
awarded a zero mark. Re-submission of the work beyond the
maximum period of one
week will not be accepted and the assessment will be awarded a
zero mark.
B. Second offence of plagiarism
If any student is caught second time in an act of plagiarism
during his/her course of study (in a
subsequent semester), the student will directly be awarded zero
for the work in which plagiarism
is detected. In such cases, the student will not be allowed to
resubmit the work. A warning of
suspension shall be issued, and student has to sign an
undertaking and undergo counselling
session in such cases.
2. Malpractice/Ghostwriting/Collusion
A. First offence of Malpractice/Ghost writing/Collusion

If a student is caught in an act of
Malpractice/Ghostwriting/Collusion for an assessment
component irrespective of coursework or end semester, the
student shall fail the module
and shall be required to re-register the module
B. Second Offence of Malpractice/Ghost writing/Collusion
If a student is caught a second time in an act of
Malpractice/Ghostwriting/Collusion for
an assessment component irrespective of coursework or end
semester, the student
shall fail the module. A warning of suspension shall be issued,
and student has to sign
an undertaking and undergo counselling session in such cases.
3. Third Offence of Academic Integrity Violation
If a student is caught a third time in an act of Academic
Integrity Violation for an assessment
component irrespective of coursework or end semester (in a
subsequent semester), the student
shall fail the module and also shall be suspended for one
semester from the College, as
recommended by institutional level academic committee,
Chaired by the Associate Dean, Academic

Affairs.
4. Fourth Offence of Academic Integrity Violation:
If a student is caught a fourth time in an act of Academic
Integrity Violation for an assessment
component irrespective of coursework or end semester (in a
subsequent semester), the student shall
fail the module and also shall be expelled from the College, as
recommended by institutional level
academic committee, Chaired by the Associate Dean, Academic
Affairs.
5. Other cases
If a student commits an act of academic integrity violation as
per the definition of “other cases”
mentioned in the previous section or of a different nature,
student’s case shall be forwarded to an
institutional level academic committee, Chaired by the
Associate Dean, Academic Affairs. The
committee shall investigate the case by means of a viva and/or a
disciplinary hearing and shall take
appropriate decision. The penalty that can be granted to a
proven case of academic integrity violation
which falls in this category of “other cases” can be a

warning/component zero/ module
fail/suspension/expulsion depending on the nature and gravity
of the offence.
6. Types/Variations of Cases:
I. If plagiarism is detected in any component of one assessment,
the deduction in marks will be
applicable for the whole assessment, even if only the component
or part submission alone needs
to be resubmitted.
II. If plagiarism is detected in a group assessment, all students
of the group will be considered as
having committed an act of plagiarism and the policy will then
be applied to all students
III. If plagiarism is detected in any component of a group
assessment, the deduction in marks will be
applicable for the whole assessment even if only the component
or part submission alone needs
to be resubmitted.

All students of the group would be considered as having
committed an act of plagiarism and the
policy will then be applied to all the students of the group.
IV. If the assessment consists of components or part
submissions that could be a group assessment
component (e.g. group assignment) and an individual
assessment component (e.g. individual
reflection), the following will be applicable:
a. If plagiarism is detected in the group assessment component,
all students of the group
will be considered as having committed an act of plagiarism,
The policy will then be
applied to all students of the group. Group assessment
component will be resubmitted

submitted beyond a period of one
week (5 working days) after the last date of submission will not
be accepted and will be awarded
a zero for that assessment. In cases where the submission has
been delayed due to extenuating
circumstances, the student may be permitted to submit the work
without imposing the late
submission policy stated above. The extended period of
submission will be one week from the
original last date of submission. In such cases, the student is
expected to submit the supporting

certificates on or before the original last date of submission of
the assessment and the decision
of extension rests with faculty responsible for the assessment
.The late submission policy shall be
applied if the student fails to submit the work within one week

Introduction
FARAMIL S.A.O.G is a company that produces mechanical
parts in Uber (Oman). The company have received many orders
regarding front brakes for brand new trucks that will be
launched soon. There are two types of brakes which FARAMIL
Company must manufacture daily. The first type is for the right
front wheels which corresponds 600 to part code
PS3476FRT543789DR and another 600 for the left front wheels
to part code PS3476FRT543789IZ as the weight for each brake
is 14.5 kgs. The company’s (FARAMIL) duty is to supply the
products to Uber in Oman every day except on Fridays as is
contracted for a year, which means 249 deliveries in a year. The
products are stuffed in recyclable parallelepiped plastic boxes
attached to the integral. The dimensions of the box are
30x40x25 cm as every box can carry a full set of the brake
supplies. For the work to be easy in logistics and sales, the
boxes must be separated into two colors, yellow on the left and
orange on the right of the pallet. The boxes will be piled on
wooden pallets which are measured in 120x80x15 cm with a
weight of 10 kgs. Between the boxes, a thick sheet (6mm) made
out of plywood (120cm x 80 cm x 0.6 cm thick) is been stacked

in layers to make it safe for the boxes. When the pallets are
completely full, it gets wrapped. The height of a pallet is 150
cm.
But FARAMIL Company has a problem with the contract, it
cannot complete all the work in Uber, Oman due to the lack of
expertise so it must ask a different Company to help in the
treatment needed for the brakes.
In another hand, MEDIBRAKE Company which is located in
Medina, Saudi Arabia has the ability to apply the treatment.
Both companies have an agreement that was made to deliver the
required amount of orders every day to the factory for the
treatments, they get shifted back two days after so they get
stuffed again in the usual situation when it first delivered.
For this operation to be done, the logistics manager of
FARAMIL has contacted several groups including The Sailing
Express. The group’s work here is to help out the manager in
the process of transportation by choosing the best method.
Calculations
Given: Number of brakes to be transport
600
Left brakes
(yellow)
600
Right brakes
(orange)
Weight of each brakes= 145 Kg (weight of one brake)
Waking days (Saturday to Thursday) =6 days a week

Number of deliveries= 249 (maximum)
Dimension of box= 30*40*25cm
Dimension of pallets= 120*80*15cm
Number of boxes that can be put on pallet: 120*30/30*40=
9600/1200= 8
Maximum height of the pallet with
1 cm= 10mm
Boxes+ pallets+ sheets = 150cm= 1500mm
150 cm= 150cm*10= 1500mm
Height of pallet 15cm= 150mm
Length of pallet 120cm= 1200mm
Width of pallet 80cm= 800mm
Thickness of sheet 0.6cm= 6mm
Height of boxes+ sheet
250mm- 6mm= 256mm
Height of boxes + sheets = maximum height – height of pallets
= 1500mm-150mm=1350mm
Height of one box + sheet = 250mm+6mm=256mm
No. of layers to be on pallets = 130/256 = 5.27 = 5 layers
No. of boxes that can be stacked/put = 8*5 = 40 boxes
Calculation of number of pallets
1. 40’ containers
L= 11998 mm = 12000mm (approx.)
W= 2350mm = 2000mm (approx.)
Width of pallet: 800mm
Length of pallet: 120mm
No. of pallets that can be put inside 40’ container
= 12000*2000/1200*800 = 25 pallets
2. 40’ PW
L= 11998 mm = 12000 mm
W= 2490mm = 2500mm
Width of pallet: 800mm
Length of pallet: 1200mm

= 12000*2500/1200*800 = 125/4 = 31.25
30 pallets (40*30) = 1200
3. for 20’ PW = 15 p
Area of the 20 PW = L*W
= 5867*2350 = 12878450
Number of pallets/20 PW = 12878450/ 9640000= 15p
4. Semi-trailer = 0.9 per day
Area of the semi-trailer= L* W
13467* 2440= 32859480
Area of the pallet= 960000
Number of pallets/ semi-trails= 32859480/ 960000= 33.75p
5. 20ft containers= 25* 40= 1000
1200/1000=1.2 containers
For 40 PW containers=1containers
Semi trails=0.8 nn
SWOT analysis
SWOT analysis is a crucial planning method used to help an
individual or group to identify strengths, weaknesses,
opportunities, and threats linked to business competition or
project planning.
Strengths: are set points of internal positive for the companies.
For instance, operations successful commercial, assets in
knowledge, education, network and skills, asset material such as
equipment and technology.
Weaknesses: the negative factors which reduces your point’s
strength. There are several of the stuff that improved to be able.
For example, you need to improve the mark commercial, asset
tangible such as money and equipment and the success of idea
location.
Opportunities: areexternal factors in the environment work

which are contribute to the success of the work. For example,
development business and changes to come to regulations that
affect the company positively.
Threats: are external factors that cannot be controlled. Develop
contingency plans to deal with them if they occur. For instance,
potential competitors entering the market, if suppliers can
always supply raw materials at favorable prices to all, if future
developments in technology change work ,the impact of
negative consumer behavior can change and market trends that
can become a threat.

Airline
1. RMO 375+ OMR 140+ OMR 205.301= OMR 720.301 for
single trip (LD4 Container).
For 1 roundtrip of (LD4 Container): OMR 720.301 *2= OMR
1440.602.
2. (LD- 11 Container): OMR 500+OMR 140+ OMR 720.301=
OMR 1360.301 for single trip.
1360.301* 2= 2720.602 (LD-11Container) for 1 roundtrip.
Short sea transport
1. (40ft container) for single trip
390+ 350+ 20=OMR 760
390+ 350+ 9.228=OMR 749.228 for single trip (40ft container)
(390* 2)+ (350* 2) + (20+9.228)
780+ 700+ 29.228= OMR 1509.228 for 1 roundtrip
2. Semi-trailer
410+ 370+20= OMR 800
410+370+9.228= OMR 789.228 for single trip
(410* 2)+ (370* 2) + (20+ 9.228)
=820+ 740+ 29.228= OMR 1589.228 for 1 roundtrip
Road transport
1. (0.44 OMR * 2552 Km) + (200 OMR + 0.60 OMR +0.441)=
1323.921 OMR for 1 single trip.
2. (1323.921 OMR) * 2 = 2647.842 OMR for 1 roundtrip.
The sailing express group have chosen to transport the brakes

using short sea transportation. Many people prefer using it
because it’s reliable, safe which means chances of robberies are
less. It has perfect capacity and flexibility to hold loads of
goods. It also reduces road traffics, and the drivers can have
some comfort time and rest if they felt tiered. Plus, it costs less
than other means of transportation. The distance for travelling
by short sea is 1300Nm with speed of 12 km/h but the
containers acceptation time has to be before 6 hours. Adding to
that, there is daily transportation service by a ferry from Salalah
port to Jeddah, then it can be delivered by road to Medina.
There are three types of containers to transfer the products by,
20ft container, 40ft container and a semi-trailer. If the container
delivers an IMO item, the cost will be higher. If FARAMIL uses
a 40ftcontainer to deliver, it has to pay 350, and extra 29 OMR
to load and unload the containers.
Since the cost in Oman is 20 OMR, and in Jeddah they have to
pay 9 OMR to the port. (9+20=29). DESTEP analysis helps to
identify the external factors that affects the work inside the
company
Conclusion
In conclusion, the sailing express group assisted the Logistics
Manager in the transportation of the brakes from where they’ve
been manufactured (Uber, Oman) to the treatment process in
Medina (Saudi Arabia) since they’re capable of the treatment.
This company is called MADIBRAKE.
The sailing express have done many calculations to clarify and
know the best and easiest way to help the logistics manager of
FARAMIL to take the brakes to Saudi Arabia and return them
back to Oman. The group came up with the solution of
transferring yellow boxes and orange boxes. To make the
process easy in the field of logistics and sales, the boxes have
been divided. The boxes were put on pallets after performing
many calculations to find out the capacity of each boxes as well
as the pallets. Then SWOT system was used to help in knowing
the best transportation method (air, land, and road) in terms of

Strength, Weakness, Opportunities and Threats. The sailing
express have chosen the short sea for transportation, it costs
less than the rest as well as it can deliver loads of goods that
can make the process of delivering faster in a specific time. It is
safer compared to other forms of transport and preferred by
many.
