Development of a Forensic Toolkit for Small-Medium Size Business (SMB)

Abstract

With the increasing rate of digitalization around the world, more and more small-medium size businesses (SMBs) now depend on technology. Sources claim that more than half of SMBs experience cyberattacks, which leave certain artefacts that can be used as information to reveal the cause of the attack, if processed and analyzed correctly. This work proposes a portable toolkit that aims to assist users in the extraction and identification of forensic data for SMBs. Through its graphical interface, users will be able to select which type of information they would like to extract, by selecting the appropriate built-in tool.
