Abstract
A computing resource service provider may provide customers with a block-level forensics service. Logical volumes associated a customer may be used to instantiate computing resources provided by a computing resource service provide for use by the customer. The block-level forensics service or component thereof may monitor the logical volume based at least in part on a log generated as a result of the logical volume being implemented as a log-structured storage system. Operations to the log may be collected by the block-level forensics service and malicious activity may be detected based at least in part on operations to the log.
