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.
