| Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles
available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Foremost is a
forensic data recovery program for Linux used to recover files using
their headers, footers, and data structures through a process known as
file carving. Although written for law enforcement use, it is freely
available and can be used as a general data recovery tool. Foremost was
created in March 2001 to duplicate the functionality of a similar
program, the DOS program CarvThis, for use on the Linux platform.
Foremost was originally written by Special Agents Kris Kendall and Jesse
Kornblum of the United States Air Force Office of Special
Investigations. In 2005, the program was modified by Nick Mikus, a
research associate at the Naval Postgraduate School's Center for
Information Systems Security Studies and Research as part of a master's
thesis. These modifications included improvements to Foremost's accuracy
and extraction rates. |
