For those new to digital forensics or Linux, this book will be extremely useful from front to back without being overwhelming or difficult to understand. Everything is covered from the most basic topics such as identifying storage devices, to acquiring data from the target/evidentiary media and performing simple data recovery and analysis.For those who are already professional level forensic examiners… if Kali isn’t part of your toolbox yet, this is a good way to add it. The latter chapters even cover several subjects often left out of other forensic books such as malware, ransomware, identifying devices on a network, and network traffic/packet analysis.

I enjoyed this book and found it to be a great resource. It covers a vast array of many digital forensic tools and approaches that are standards in the industry. The best aspect of this book compared to other similar books is the way the topics are outlined, introduced, and are presented in a logical order. This really makes each chapter make sense and build successfully off one another.

"As a security professional specializing in penetration testing, this book is a valuable resource for individuals across disciplines. It enhances the use of forensic tools like Volatility, p0f, file recovery tools, and network scanners such as Xplico. It also introduces often overlooked areas for beginners, such as malware and ransomware evidence gathering. This handbook is excellent for those interested in forensics or utilizing a cybersecurity Swiss army knife for security operations."

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

How accurate is the publication date? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.
