I provided the example from the SANS Windows Forensic Poster and showed, from the poster, that MAC times are not updated when a file…

  • MacOS Timestamps from Extended Attributes and Spotlight

    I started this whole thing just with a general idea that I want to track times across USB devices on MacOS. As I went further down the rabbit-hole, however, I seem to have gotten lost and can’t seem to find my way back without finding more unexplored tunnels. It seems as if there are more…

  • More MacOS File Movements

    No sooner had I posted the last article than I started getting questions, all along the same theme. “What about NTFS?” They shout. “I’m working on it,” I replied. And so I was. To review, HFS+ has five timestamps: Created Modified (last written) Accessed Record Change Added Date NTFS, on the other hand, has eight:…

  • As Promised

    Every year. Every damned year. Well, these people caught me on a morning when I feel unwell and decidedly curmudgeonly. So here’s their email and my reply. This is Helena from Compelson, the creators of MobilEdit. Hello Lee, Unfortunately we didn’t receive any invitation from you, that is time to vote… Any chance we could…

  • Ken Johnson

    I considered writing this on Facebook but, then, the audience would be somewhat limited. Occasionally I write personal things here but today is a mix of both professional and personal. This is Ken Johnson. You may also know him as @Patories on Twitter. On Monday evening Ken was in the Milwaukee area on Business with…
