SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Build a single, coherent timeline by combining timestamps from disks, memory, logs, PCAPs, and reports to reveal the sequence of events.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Consolidates MACB timelines from multiple sources into a unified view.
  • Normalizes diverse timestamp formats and time zones to preserve correct event order.
  • Produces a narrative suitable for investigations, reporting, and stakeholder briefings.

Quick Start

Provide a path to the evidence directory to generate the unified timeline.

FAQPage Schema
How do I build a unified forensic timeline from multiple evidence sources?

To build a unified forensic timeline, aggregate timestamps from disk images, memory dumps, logs, and PCAPs into a single sequential view. This process normalizes diverse formats and time zones to reveal the exact sequence of investigation events.

How does timestamp normalization handle MACB timestamps across different time zones?

Timestamp normalization handles MACB timestamps by standardizing diverse time zones and source-specific formats into a single consistent structure. This preserves the correct chronological order of forensic events across all aggregated evidence.

Can I reconstruct network activity and memory artifacts in the same DFIR timeline?

Yes, you can reconstruct network activity and memory artifacts in the same DFIR timeline. The merging logic coordinates timestamp extraction from PCAPs and memory dumps alongside disk metadata to produce a unified chronological narrative.

What is the best way to consolidate disk image and log timestamps for an investigation report?

The best way to consolidate disk image and log timestamps is to aggregate them into a normalized timeline. This produces a coherent narrative of events suitable directly for stakeholder briefings and investigation reporting.

What evidence formats are supported for sequential event reconstruction?

Supported evidence formats for sequential event reconstruction include disk images, memory dumps, logs, PCAPs, and reports. The aggregation logic handles source-specific artifacts from each to merge timestamps accurately.
