Overview of this book

Over the last few years, the wave of the cybercrime has risen rapidly. We have witnessed many major attacks on the governmental, military, financial, and media sectors. Tracking all these attacks and crimes requires a deep understanding of operating system operations, how to extract evident data from digital evidence, and the best usage of the digital forensic tools and techniques. Regardless of your level of experience in the field of information security in general, this book will fully introduce you to digital forensics. It will provide you with the knowledge needed to assemble different types of evidence effectively, and walk you through the various stages of the analysis process. We start by discussing the principles of the digital forensics process and move on to show you the approaches that are used to conduct analysis. We will then study various tools to perform live analysis, and go through different techniques to analyze volatile and non-volatile data.

This leaves us with a simple step to recover these files by redirecting the contents of each file to a new file. What if there are no entries for the deleted file, and we only have the contents of the file in the data area and no metadata about this file (which under this assumption will be in the unallocated area of the hard drive)? In this case, the file carving technique will be useful to recover such files.

Each file has a different type, such as Microsoft Office, Adobe, exe, and AVI. The extension at the end of the filename is not what is needed to differentiate between one file type and another. There is a header in the beginning of each file which differs from one type to another. Some file types have a footer in the end of the file, but this is not mandatory...
