File Carving and File Recovery with DiskDigger (Hacking Illustrated Series InfoSec Tutorial Videos)

File Carving and File Recovery with DiskDigger

DiskDigger is a tool that allows you to recover deleted files off of a FAT or NTFS drive. It has two modes of operation: In the first it merely looks in the FAT/MFT to find files marked as deleted, in much the same way that the tool called Restoration does. In the 2nd mode it does a file carve down the drive looking at the raw bits and finding the know headers and footers of various file types, much like PhotoRec. While PhotoRec seems a little more powerful, DiskDigger is easier to use and its preview functionality is quite nice. This video will cover the basics of recovering deleted files with DiskDigger.

 If the embedded video below does not show RIGHT click here to save the file to your hard drive.
