The imager software creates copies of data without making changes to the original data. Once the data has been collected, the imager performs a forensic examination and creates reports of the findings. FTK imager creates different file formats such as .E01, SMART, AFF, and RAW.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p> Adding Files to FTK Imager vs. Autopsy<\/p>\n<p> FTK Imager <\/p>\n<p> Open FTK Imager and Select the add <\/p>\n<p> Select the evidence type on this case it is an image file.<\/p>\n<p> Select the Evidence Source Location <\/p>\n<p> The file will be addedin FTK and visible<\/p>\n<p> Autopsy Imager <\/p>\n<p> Open Autopsy and Click New Case<\/p>\n<p> Choose Case Name and Base Directory <\/p>\n<p> Fill in all pertinent information <\/p>\n<p> Select Generate a new hostname based on the data source name. <\/p>\n<p> Select Data Source Type <\/p>\n<p> Select Data Source path<\/p>\n<p> The Data Source will load within the application <\/p>\n<p> Hexadecimal View vs. Text View<\/p>\n<p> Hexadecimal is a number system which also sometimes called base 16 referring to the prefix hex. This system has unique way of representing a particular value using 16 unique symbols. These symbols consist of 0-9 and A-F. Since it is called hexadecimal is based on the decimal system ranging from 0-9 to represent specific values. The standard way of expressing values is the use of binary. For example, 1,000,000 in binary would be 1111 0100 0010 0100 0000 which is super long and inefficient. The use of hexadecimal shortens this long binary string in to F4240. <\/p>\n<p> Strength and Weakness of FTK<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Comparing FTK Imager and Autopsy Comparing FTK Imager and Autopsy CSOL-590-04-FA21 &#8211; Cyber Incident Resp\/Forensics CSOL-590-04-FA21 &#8211; Cyber Incident Resp\/Forensics 2021 2021 What is FTK?
