Description
A plea...
Deanna and I have been running this site since 2008 and lately we're seeing a big increase in
users (and cost) but a decline in percentage of users who donate. Our ad-free and junkware-free
download site only works if everyone chips in to offset the revenue that ads on other sites bring
in. Please donate at the bottom of the page. Every little bit helps. Thank you so much.
Sincerely,
your Older Geeks: Randy and Deanna

Chainsaw v2.11.0

Rapidly Search and Hunt through Windows Event Logs

Chainsaw provides a powerful ‘first-response’ capability to quickly identify threats within Windows forensic artifacts such as Event Logs and the MFT file. Chainsaw offers a generic and fast method of searching through event logs for keywords, and by identifying threats using built-in support for Sigma detection rules, and via custom Chainsaw detection rules.




Features
🎯 Hunt for threats using Sigma detection rules and custom Chainsaw detection rules
🔍 Search and extract forensic artefacts by string matching, and regex patterns
📅 Create execution timelines by analysing Shimcache artefacts and enriching them with Amcache data
💡 Analyse the SRUM database and provide insights about it
⬇️ Dump the raw content of forensic artefacts (MFT, registry hives, ESE databases)
⚡ Lightning fast, written in rust, wrapping the EVTX parser library by @OBenamram
🪶 Clean and lightweight execution and output formats without unnecessary bloat
🔥 Document tagging (detection logic matching) provided by the TAU Engine Library
📑 Output results in a variety of formats, such as ASCII table format, CSV format, and JSON format
💻 Can be run on MacOS, Linux and Windows

See the Wiki for usage instructions.

Changes
v2.11.0
Improvements to the MFT parser, allowing data streams to be extracted, decoded and written to disk.
Decoded MFT Datastreams can now be queried via the Search command and via the Hunt Command.
