FTimes 3.2.1 Release (Includes Dig, HashDig, and Map Tools)

Background:

  FTimes is a system baselining and evidence collection tool. The   primary purpose of FTimes is to gather and/or develop information   about specified directories and files in a manner conducive to   intrusion analysis.

  FTimes is a lightweight tool in the sense that it doesn't need   to be "installed" on a given system to work on that system, it   is small enough to fit on a single floppy, and it provides only   a command line interface.

  Preserving records of all activity that occurs during a snapshot   is important for intrusion analysis and evidence admissibility.   For this reason, FTimes was designed to log four types of   information: configuration settings, progress indicators, metrics,   and errors. Output produced by FTimes is delimited text, and   therefore, is easily assimilated by a wide variety of existing   tools.

  HashDig technology is a collection of utilities designed to help   practitioners automate the process of resolving MD5 hashes. In   the early stages of an investigation, it is not typically possible   or practical to examine all subject files. Therefore, practitioners   need reliable methods that can quickly reduce the number of files   requiring examination. One such method is to group files into two   general categories: known and unknown. This method can be implemented   quite effectively by manipulating hashes and comparing them to   one or more reference databases. Even that, however, can take a   significant amount of effort. HashDig technology attempts to   reduce this burden through automation and the use of lightweight,   open, and verifiable techniques.

  Version 3.2.1 is an update release of FTimes. Generally, code was   cleaned up and refined as necessary. The configure/build process   has been updated, and several new configure options were added.   The major event for this release was the addition of a number of   new Dig, HashDig, and Map utilities. These tools were designed   to support various workbench activities such as extracting DigString   context, resolving MD5 hashes, and constructing MAC/MACH timelines.   The primary focus of the work effort was to refine these utilities   to the point where they could be released in beta form.
