Elcomsoft System Recovery 8.20: Bootable Forensic Tools and Windows 11 Support

ElcomSoft Co. Ltd. updates Elcomsoft System Recovery, a bootable tool for imaging and analyzing Windows computers on the go, accessing encrypted volumes and extracting encryption metadata. The new release adds new forensic tools to help experts analyze computer systems in the field, and brings support for computers running Windows 11 and Windows Server 2022.

“The already powerful tool is now evolving into a feature-rich bootable forensic toolkit”, says Vladimir Katalov, Elcomsoft CEO. “The new release makes field analysis faster and more straightforward while still producing court admissible evidence with write-blocking disk imaging.”

Bootable Forensic Tools

The new forensic tools allow reviewing the list of installed apps (system-wide), analyze the users’ timeline and access the list of recently accessed files and folders. These tools can be launched instantly from the bootable drive and are designed to speed up investigations by shortcutting the lengthy disk imaging and analysis process.

The Timeline tool allows reviewing the user’s activities logged by the Windows Timeline. This includes the list of launched apps and past activities laid out in the convenient timeline view. Another tool lists recently accessed files and folder, while the last one lists applications installed in the system.

Thanks to these new analysis features, experts can simply boot a PC from a USB flash drive and quickly review the user’s latest activities. The shortcut saves the time and effort of removing and imaging the hard drive(s), making it possible to make real-time decisions in the field.
