Gathering file identification is an important process for future identification and classification of file data or for data recovery purposes.

Processing a mounted volume?

If processing a mounted volume the tool Header Grab Advanced, part of Simple Carver Suite is invaluable as it allows you to quickly gather all header and file extension information which is stored with a single Access Database for processing and filtering or exported to CSV. This information can be used to assist in identifying file types in future cases or recovery of deleted data.

If processing a case using the forensic software Encase, an enscript is available on the guidance forensic forum or available in the members area of www.filesig.co.uk - the encase header gather script will read all headers from selected entries within a case and export to CSV format for review.
