Digital Evidence Handling Using Autopsy

The Autopsy Forensics Browser is a graphical interface to The Sleuth Kit (TASK). Autopsy is a free and open Source Windows-based digital forensics platform for diagnose an event. It is capable of analysing disk images, local drives and directories in order to determine possible causes of an event in a read-only environment. It was designed to be an extensible platform so that it can be an end-to-end digital forensics solution that incorporates plug-in modules from both open and closed source projects. This paper represents the process of installation of Autopsy 3.1.1, ingestion of data, analysing of data and features of the current version of software.
