Nowadays, computer forensics is used more frequently by security and law-enforcing agencies to detect traces of wrongdoings among employees and particular users. This program performs an in-depth analysis of systems to detect evidence that can convict cyber criminals and other delinquents.
Although its functions are very specialized, it is really easy to use. You can start by creating a case by typing its name and that of the investigator, as well as other data regarding the custody of information, the body requesting the investigation, and so on. The program has powerful capabilities. You can search files by name and select those you want to inspect. This process is done in mere seconds, unlike other file search methods, which can take several minutes or even hours. You can also search among the deleted files those that were destroyed by the delinquent to erase any evidence. This process takes a while, since, as I've said, it is a very in-depth search.
The program has many other functions, such as a recent activity research function, a built-in web browser so you don't need to perform Internet functions outside the program, and much more. Thus, you will need to read the full manual to become familiar with all the program's functionalities.
Since the program is aimed at corporate and law-enforcing users, its cost is not affordable for common users. Nevertheless, if you need to research a computer in search of specific data for security purposes, then you may find it useful.
You can use the shareware version of the program during 30 days. If you find it useful and want to use it longer, then you will need to purchase a license.
