Just a quick post on the Windows Recycle Bin whilst it’s fresh in my mind (also because I posted some findings on Twitter, and will definitely lose them if I want to refer back another time). I figure since I did the testing I should get it down somewhere. Already spent the time to do it so may as well get it down on paper so I don’t have to redo it again another time 🙂
Another Sunday Funday!
This time, we’re cutting and pasting across volumes. I decided to take a slightly different route than last week and just created two VHDs to cut and paste between. (I have no idea why I didn’t think of that last week, do all of the copying and pasting in one go and then be done with it. If there’s a hard way to do something, I will find it 🙂 ).
Since I’m home and the baby is asleep I thought I’d spend some time on this weeks Sunday Funday challenge. I probably should sleep too, but that’s a problem for future me 🙂
No, this isn’t a post about Clippy, sorry everyone, especially Lee 🙂 Clippy’s gone forever. (more…)
Mini Cats! It will make sense later…
It’s not uncommon to be asked whether a user had a login password or to need it to login to a virtualised copy of a suspects computer. In the case of the later, you can usually just clear the password and proceed, but sometimes knowing the password may be important.
I played with a few tools that I had on hand to get a local user’s NTLM hash during Dave and Matt’s DFIR CTF at DEF CON and documented my findings (and finally got around to finishing this up)
I have recently started looking at the wealth of data that can be obtained from file system iPhone extractions; a lot of which has already been explored by Sarah Edwards in her iOS of Sauron presentation, and also recently in her post on the KnowledgeC database.
Based on that I decided to take a look at the powerlog PLSQL SQLite databases on a jailbroken iPhone running iOS 10.2. I would have to double check, but I don’t think this file will get exported from a standard backup, and as a result you’ll have to jail break the device to get at this file. (more…)
Had a need to do some quick testing on different operations on OS X 10.10.5 (Yosemite) and thought I’d share (plus ask for some assistance).
We’ve been seeing a lot of new blogs popping up recently, and I wanted to share parts of my recent Enfuse presentation on personal branding in the hopes of encouraging more people to follow suit (that and I’m still trying to post up once a month)
A couple weeks ago at Techno Security I saw a presentation about examining cloud storage applications such as Dropbox. Whilst the presentation was great, the main thing I noticed was that when the presenter selected a Zone Identifier ADS there was more than the usual ZoneID=3.
Finally decided to do a little bit more digging!
For background on Zone Identifiers, you can see the paper by Paul Sanderson here.
I just presented my research on investigations including Google Home devices at the SANS DFIR Summit and with that am releasing the Python script that I wrote for part of it. (more…)
