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.

Summary


In this chapter, we have seen that event logs can be a useful source of evidence for forensic investigations. We examined the structure of event logs and looked at the features of event log systems for various Windows operating systems. We looked at some tools, which you can use to analyze event logs.

In the next chapter, we will look at some files with which the Windows OS works. These files are artifacts of Windows live, and they reflect what occurred in the system. We will learn to analyze prefetch, links, and jobs files.
