SANS Investigative Forensics Toolkit

The SANS Investigative Forensic Toolkit ("SIFT") is a computer forensics VMware appliance that is pre-configured with all the necessary tools to perform a detailed digital forensic examination. It is compatible with expert witness format (E01), advanced forensic format (AFF), and raw (dd) evidence formats. The new version has been completely rebuilt on an Ubuntu base with many additional tools and capabilities that can match any modern forensic tool suite.

The toolkit has the ability to securely examine raw disks, multiple file systems, and evidence formats. It places strict guidelines on how evidence is examined (read-only), verifying that the evidence has not changed.
