MASTIFF is a static analysis framework which automates the process of extracting key characteristics from a number of different file formats. To ensure the framework remains flexible and extensible, a community-driven set of plugins is used to perform file analysis and data extraction. While originally designed to support malware, intrusion, and forensic analysis, the framework is well-suited to support a broader range of analytic needs. In a nutshell, MASTIFF allows analysts to focus on analysis rather than figuring out how to parse files.
Fortools_dd is a set of forensic apps, created with zenity, for terminal commandos and bash scripts in Linux. It includes Mount_dd (a mounting images app), kijknekerap (a Dutch Terminal app), fgrep_dd (grep apps), convert_dd (a conversion app for aff > dd > EWF), shred_dd (a shredding app), filecopy_dd (a search-and-copy app), forensic_wine_dd (a Windows software with Wine app), reportmaker_dd (a small reportmaking app), Browserhistory_dd (a history app), and Offsetgrabber_dd (an offset viewing app).
WTMParse is a script originally intended for use in forensic examinations which parses WTMP files from Unix-like operating systems and generates a CSS-styled HTML report containing the login terminal, username, log start date, and login time/date in a table. It's good for postmortem forensic examinations or as a way of getting "last"-like information when you don't have the ability to boot the machine in question but can grab the wtmp.
Xplico is an IP traffic decoder that extracts data from an Internet traffic capture. From a pcap file, it can extracts each email (POP, IMAP, and SMTP protocols), all HTTP content, VoIP calls (SIP, RTP, H323, MEGACO, MGCP), IRC, MSN, and so on. It isn't a packet sniffer or a network protocol analyzer, but rather an IP/Internet traffic decoder or network forensic analysis tool (NFAT).
Lynis is an auditing tool for Unix (specialists). It scans systems to detect software and security issues. Besides security-related information, it will also scan for general system information, installed packages, and possible configuration mistakes. The software is aimed at assisting automated auditing, software patch management, and vulnerability and malware scanning of Unix-based systems.
Xtract attempts to demonstrate how Wireshark's powerful network traffic analysis capabilities can be combined with the file carving capabilities of programs such as Foremost and NetworkMiner in a manner that is portable and extensible (hence the choice of Perl). Specifically, it offers automated extraction of network stream sessions; visualization of networks via GraphViz; and integration of file carving capability. The scripts are intended as a proof-of-concept for how tedious tasks of reassembling TCP/UDP streams from network capture files and file carving based on these streams can be automated.
