Abstract

The chapter delves into the process of creating text indices in digital forensics, explaining how these indices facilitate fast keyword searches and aid in password cracking. It discusses the considerations involved in index creation and the differences between live and index searches. Additionally, the chapter explores the use of regular expressions in forensic analysis, providing examples and practical applications. By understanding these techniques, forensic experts can significantly enhance their search capabilities and improve the efficiency of their investigations.
