Version 1.6 of #DFIR #parseUSBs is out…

I was interested to see if I could fill in any gaps in assigned drive letters for previous USB connections using LNK data, so this version does exactly that (matching on VSN)

As always, feedback very welcome

Me: i’m going to start the year as I mean to go on, with a 2km #DFIRFit run on the treadmill 💪

My treadmill 2mins into the warm up…

Anyone know how to fix a dead @nordictrack.bsky.social S20 (UK)? 🤦‍♀️

It’s not the fuse & I yes I already tried turning it off & on again!

Very important development… the @trafficscotland gritter tracker now has a beta 3D map! Best names ever, every year

Go Icesweeper Willie, go!

Though I still think the best name so far is… Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Anti-Slip Machiney

Interesting and potentially problematic from a LE viewpoint - @tazwake.bsky.social did you know about this?

My #parseusbs #DFIR tool got another small update this week to fix an issue on Linux - now tested on Windows cmd/powershell, WSL (the best shell!), and Ubuntu

Parse USB connection artifacts from a Windows volume, including registry & event log data (or offline hives)

Join me in Lisbon next week for lots of @sansforensics #FOR500 Windows forensics fun. I’ve discovered some fun new things about USB connection artifacts that I’ll be sharing first at this event, so you’ll want to be around for all that!

This git is full of resources for event logs/auditing. Covers everything from tool configs to audit cheatsheets to event attack chains and data samples. In #DFIR visibility is key. This is a solid resource for those responding to an incident or trying to prevent one. #grc
