General Information Artifact Examples

Word Document

A module that analyzes a Microsoft Word file can pull text and metadata from the file. It should

  • Save the extracted text as a TEXT attribute in GEN_INFO
  • Save the last saved, printed, etc. dates as DATETIME attributes in GEN_INFO
  • Save the author as XX in GEN_INFO
  • Any images and embedded files that it can extract should be added to the central ImgDB as derived files and scheduled for processing.


JPEG File

A module that analyzes a JPEG image file could:

  • Save the EXIF data (DATETIME, DEVICE, GEO) as attributes in GEN_INFO.
