<h2>Overview</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Autopsy allows you to conduct a digital forensic investigation. It is a graphical interface to The Sleuth Kit and other open source tools. This page outlines the basic concepts of the program. The remainder of the help guide is organized around these concepts.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>All data is organized around the concept of a <a href="nbdocs:/org/sleuthkit/autopsy/casemodule/docs/casemodule-about.html">case</a>. A case can have one or more disk <a href="nbdocs:/org/sleuthkit/autopsy/casemodule/docs/aboutImage.html">images</a> loaded into it.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The main window has three major areas:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><a href="nbdocs:/org/sleuthkit/autopsy/corecomponents/docs/dataexplorer-about.html">Data Explorers</a> (area 4 in figure below): This area is where you go find major analysis functionality. It allows you to start finding the relevant files.</li>
|
|
<li><a href="nbdocs:/org/sleuthkit/autopsy/corecomponents/docs/dataresult-about.html">Result Viewers</a> (area 5 in figure below): This area is where the files and directories that were found from the explorer window can be viewed. There are different formatting options for the files.</li>
|
|
<li><a href="nbdocs:/org/sleuthkit/autopsy/corecomponents/docs/datacontent-about.html">Content Viewers</a> (area 6 in figure below): This area is where file content can be viewed after they are selected from the Result Viewer area.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The main take away from this should be that analysis techniques can be found on the left-hand side, the results are always listed in the upper right, and the file contents are displayed in the lower left.

Tip: to create a link which will open in an external web browser, try:
|
|
<object classid="java:org.netbeans.modules.javahelp.BrowserDisplayer">
|
|
<param name="content" value="http://www.netbeans.org/">
|
|
<param name="text" value="<html><u>http://www.netbeans.org/</u></html>">
|
|
<param name="textFontSize" value="medium">
|
|
<param name="textColor" value="blue">
|
|
</object>
|
|
To create a link to a help set from another module, you need to know the code name base and path, e.g.:
|
|
<a href="nbdocs://org.netbeans.modules.usersguide/org/netbeans/modules/usersguide/configure/configure_options.html">Using the Options Window</a>
|
|
(This link will behave sanely if that module is disabled or missing.)
