Live-Forensicator – Powershell Script To Aid Incidence Response And Live Forensics
Live Forensicator is part of the Black Widow Toolbox, its aim is to assist Forensic Investigators and Incidence responders in carrying out a quick live forensic investigation. It achieves this by gathering different system information for further review for anomalous behaviour or unexpected data entry, it also looks out for unusual files or activities and points it out to the investigator. It is paramount to note that this script has no inbuilt intelligence its left for the investigator to analyse the output and decide on a conclusion or decide on carrying out more deeper investigation.
Optional Dependencies
This script is written in powershell for use on windows PCs and Servers.
For additional features it depends on external binaries.
It has a supporting file WINPMEM for taking RAM dumps https://github.com/Velocidex/WinPmem
It also depends on Nirsoft’s BrowserHistoryView for exporting browser history http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/browsing_history_view.html
This script is expected to work out of the box.
