Forensic analysis of the Windows Activity Cache – reconstructing user activities
Der Windows Activity Cache enthält – abhängig von Windows-Version und Konfiguration – Informationen über Benutzeraktivitäten und deren zeitliche Einordnung. Diese Artefakte können dabei helfen, Anwendungsnutzung, Dokumentzugriffe und weitere Aktivitäten eines Systems nachzuvollziehen.
Im Rahmen einer professionellen IT-forensischen Untersuchung werden die Daten des Activity Cache niemals isoliert bewertet. Erst die Korrelation mit Timeline-Artefakten, Event Logs, Registry-Daten, Dateisystemspuren und weiteren digitalen Beweismitteln ermöglicht eine belastbare technische Rekonstruktion.

The Activity Cache can provide additional clues as to the chronological sequence of user activities and thereby assist in reconstructing a digital sequence of events.
