Forensic analysis of Windows network profiles – tracing network connections and configurations
Windows stores information about known networks, network adaptors and previous connections. These artefacts can provide clues as to which networks a system has been connected to and which configurations were used.
A professional analysis is never carried out in isolation. Only by correlating data with registry artefacts, event logs, WLAN artefacts, DNS information and other digital traces is it possible to arrive at a reliable technical assessment.
Why LanCologne?
Since its foundation, LanCologne has specialised in professional IT forensics. Our staff have decades of experience in the field of information technology and assist companies, solicitors, private individuals and, on a regular basis, the courts in the technical investigation of complex digital matters.
The examination is carried out exclusively on a forensic copy or a forensic image. The original evidence remains unchanged and is stored in a manner that preserves its evidential integrity.
Our services
We analyse stored network profiles, adapter information and configuration data, correlate these with other Windows artefacts, and document all investigation steps in a transparent manner.
Typical areas of application
This is how the analysis works
Once a forensic image has been created, the relevant network profiles are analysed. The results are then technically assessed alongside other digital evidence.
Why are network profiles important?
They can provide information about known networks and how they are used. However, their significance only becomes apparent once all relevant digital traces have been analysed as a whole.
