[How to] Beginner Introduction to The Sleuth Kit (command line)
Today we will give a beginner-level introduction to The Sleuth Kit from command line. If this video is helpful, I highly recommend reading The Law Enforcement and Forensic Examiner’s Introduction to Linux.

[How to] Installing and updating Linux in Virtualbox
Today we are going to install and update a Debian-based operating system in VirtualBox as a guest operating system.
The first video goes through creating a virtual machine in VirtualBox, and installing an operating system from an ISO disk image.

The next video uses apt-get to update the software in the system, as well as ifconfig and ping to check if the network is working.

[How To] Digital Forensic Memory Analysis - Volatility
This week we will begin with a very basic introduction into the memory analysis framework Volatility. We will use volatility to collect information about a memory image, recover the processes that were running in the system at the time of acquisition, and try to find malicious processes within the memory image. We will cover volatility in more depth in a later video.

What I’m Reading: Robust bootstrapping memory analysis against anti forensics
Today we are talking about ‘Robust bootstrapping memory analysis against anti-forensics’ by Lee Kyoungho, Hwang Hyunuk, Kim Kibom and Noh BongNam. This paper deals with anti-forensics techniques against memory analysis, as well as using KiInitialPCR as a more tamper-resistant data structure for OS fingerprinting and process list extraction.

[How To] Digital Forensic Memory Analysis - strings, grep and photorec
This week we will show how to use basic data processing tools strings, grep and photorec to start an analysis of a Random Access Memory (RAM) image, even if we currently know nothing about the image. These methods are extremely basic types of analysis, but they are also fast and can produce some interesting results.

What I’m Reading: A functional reference model of passive systems for tracing network traffic
What I’m Reading: Today we are talking about ‘A functional reference model of passive systems for tracing network traffic’ by Thomas E. Daniels. This paper deals with network traffic origin analysis using passive methods.
