## Creating and Mounting an Image
{% content-ref url="../../generic-methodologies-and-resources/basic-forensic-methodology/image-acquisition-and-mount.md" %}
[image-acquisition-and-mount.md](../../generic-methodologies-and-resources/basic-forensic-methodology/image-acquisition-and-mount.md)
{% endcontent-ref %}
## Malware Analysis
This **isn't necessary the first step to perform once you have the image**. But you can use this malware analysis techniques independently if you have a file, a file-system image, memory image, pcap... so it's good to **keep these actions in mind**:
{% content-ref url="malware-analysis.md" %}
[malware-analysis.md](malware-analysis.md)
{% endcontent-ref %}
## Inspecting an Image
if you are given a **forensic image** of a device you can start **analyzing the partitions, file-system** used and **recovering** potentially **interesting files** (even deleted ones). Learn how in:
{% content-ref url="partitions-file-systems-carving/" %}
[partitions-file-systems-carving](partitions-file-systems-carving/)
{% endcontent-ref %}
Depending on the used OSs and even platform different interesting artifacts should be searched:
{% content-ref url="windows-forensics/" %}
[windows-forensics](windows-forensics/)
{% endcontent-ref %}
{% content-ref url="linux-forensics.md" %}
[linux-forensics.md](linux-forensics.md)
{% endcontent-ref %}
{% content-ref url="docker-forensics.md" %}
[docker-forensics.md](docker-forensics.md)
{% endcontent-ref %}
## Deep inspection of specific file-types and Software
If you have very **suspicious** **file**, then **depending on the file-type and software** that created it several **tricks** may be useful.\
Read the following page to learn some interesting tricks:
{% content-ref url="specific-software-file-type-tricks/" %}
[specific-software-file-type-tricks](specific-software-file-type-tricks/)
{% endcontent-ref %}
I want to do a special mention to the page:
{% content-ref url="specific-software-file-type-tricks/browser-artifacts.md" %}
[browser-artifacts.md](specific-software-file-type-tricks/browser-artifacts.md)
{% endcontent-ref %}
## Memory Dump Inspection
{% content-ref url="memory-dump-analysis/" %}
[memory-dump-analysis](memory-dump-analysis/)
{% endcontent-ref %}
## Pcap Inspection
{% content-ref url="pcap-inspection/" %}
[pcap-inspection](pcap-inspection/)
{% endcontent-ref %}
## **Anti-Forensic Techniques**
Keep in mind the possible use of anti-forensic techniques:
{% content-ref url="anti-forensic-techniques.md" %}
[anti-forensic-techniques.md](anti-forensic-techniques.md)
{% endcontent-ref %}
## Threat Hunting
{% content-ref url="file-integrity-monitoring.md" %}
[file-integrity-monitoring.md](file-integrity-monitoring.md)
{% endcontent-ref %}
