X-Ways Forensics Practitioner's Guide
Having been in the digital forensics field for some time I have read my fair share of books about file systems, registry forensics, Mac forensics, and more. This was one of the easiest and most straight forward reads to date. Having read Brett Shavers other book Placing the Suspect Behind the Keyboard: Using Digital Forensics and Investigative Techniques to Identify Cybercrime Suspects I have a feel for how he writes. XWF Practitioner's Guide was no different.
Though, I was surprised by the amount of content they were able to include. The book is not a how-to for digital forensics. Rather, it's a how-to for XWF. I found the book a much better read than the manual. Many of the complaints about XWF are GUI based as users are unfamiliar with the interface. Well, Chapter 3 should eliminate those complaints. The entire chapter deals with the XWF interface and getting the reader more familiar with it's quirks.
Chapter's 4, 5, and 6 are the meat and potatoes for most examiners as they deal with identification of evidence and working with images. The information was good and gave me some ideas to better apply the tool in my workflow.
Chapter 7 is advanced XWF and while informative left me wanting more. I felt this chapter was light, but honestly it wouldn't have been appropriate for the target audience.
