In this section of the book we are going to learn about some **useful forensics tricks**.\
|
|
We are going to talk about partitions, file-systems, carving, memory, logs, backups, OSs, and much more.
|
|
|
|
So if you are doing a professional forensic analysis to some data or just playing a CTF you can find here useful interesting tricks.

|
## Creating and Mounting an Image
|
|
|
|
{% content-ref url="image-adquisition-and-mount.md" %}
|
|
[image-adquisition-and-mount.md](image-adquisition-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 %}
