🧳 The Exhume Toolkit

The Exhume toolkit is a collection of command-line utilities and usable libraries designed to help forensic investigators and analysts inspect, extract, and interpret data from multiple data source. Each tool focuses on a specific stage or aspect of the forensic analysis process, allowing you to move step by step from initial data collection to deeper exploration. The toolkit is currently focused on traditional filesystem forensics and is still in active development. All of the module have to be considered as experimental until validated by many Digital Forensics Examiners. Therefore, your feedback are crutial.
