Belkasoft Avantages et Inconvénients

Belkasoft is amazing in many ways. First off, Belkasoft allows seamless processing and analysis of device images while still staying in one app. Belkasoft also allows me to learn about the way forensic artifacts work without paying for a $1000 course by occasionally giving away free courses that are well worth the time spent. Belkasoft also hs many tools that work very well. For instance, Belkasoft X has itself and a GPT client integrated. They also have a Ram Capture tool that does the job well. Finally, Belkasoft has some top-notch tool-based training. Avis collecté par et hébergé sur G2.com.

I dislike that Belkasoft X does not parse out artifacts well sometimes. Occasionally, when I import images of Windows or Mac, Belkasoft X does not parse out the emails and other artifacts wel. This can be a dealbreaker sometimes, especially when I need emails for the case I'm working on. Avis collecté par et hébergé sur G2.com.

It’s clear that the developers have put significant effort into creating a comprehensive solution for digital investigations. The software handles a wide range of artifacts with impressive ease.

Of course, like any tool, it’s not perfect. Some areas feel like they could benefit from a bit more polish, but that’s par for the course in this field. One notable downside is that the acquisition of mobile devices can be cumbersome and not as user-friendly as alternatives like XRY or Oxygen. Avis collecté par et hébergé sur G2.com.

A nice easy-to-use application that is geared to handle many types of digital investigation types as well as the most common data sources such as computers, mobile devices, cloud data and memory analysis. Belkasoft X can be utilized easily to triage devices for quick high-level analysis all the way to full deep dive investigations. Having the ability to have all your data from all sources in one platform and analyzed together is of great value. The interface of Belkasoft X is excellent. Very straight-forward with no unnecessary options to choose from just to get started looking at the data. The speed of the processing of artifacts is impressive as well. You have full control over how deep you want to dig into the data at first launch with options to reprocess on-the-go as needed. A forensic tool should allow access to the data at the hex level, which this does, but with artifact parsing added as well. Avis collecté par et hébergé sur G2.com.

There are some features missing from the Hex Viewer which I am used to that I think can easily be added. Doing a deep carve of your data seems to create a "data source" for each found container file which can really over-populate the "Structure" and "File System" tabs.

Belksoft X enables the user to dig deep into the data and find the artifacts you need for the cases you are working. The tool supports multiple operating systems and presents the data in a understandable way. The ability to go deep into the hex, sql lite databases and plists files are extremely helpful for validated the findings presented in the artifact viewer. Customer service is also responsive to issues even with licensing and trials. Avis collecté par et hébergé sur G2.com.

Only criticism would be when conducting a search to maybe add a remove all button for searching to return the screen back to all artifacts. Definitely not a breaking issue with the software though. Avis collecté par et hébergé sur G2.com.

I enjoy the most to be able to perform keyword searches in all metadata (including logs, file names and event names) which I find it very useful to do analysis. The performance is good and I am able to find the functions I want to use quite easily. Avis collecté par et hébergé sur G2.com.

I find the filtering option quite confusing. Sometimes I have to restart the application to select a folder or clear a filter. I could be doing something wrong but I have been in the field for some years now, so it could be the interface that they could improve more. Avis collecté par et hébergé sur G2.com.

Ease of use and navigation of the UI. Excellent carving ability, CheckM8 access. Continuous feature updates and improvements, stellar customer support, So much more Avis collecté par et hébergé sur G2.com.

Some time ago it was the lack of many formats in the reporting fuction, but that has been fixed. Avis collecté par et hébergé sur G2.com.
