Commonly referred to as the DNA or fingerprint of digital files, hash sets are an invaluable tool for DFIR investigations, allowing you to quickly identify case-relevant and non-pertinent evidence related to your investigations.

Hash sets can be used to quickly identify known instances of malicious or illicit files and are also very useful for identifying standard operating system and program files in data that can be removed from cases to help manage the volume of evidence in a case. Hash sets can streamline a wide array of investigations, ranging from intellectual property theft to ICAC.

How Hash Sets Manager Can Be Used in Your Investigations

For law enforcement investigations, Hash Sets Manager provides the ability to download and distribute hash sets to devices on your network from Project VIC, Child Abuse Database, and more. As your team works through cases and grades evidence, those findings can be exported as JSON files, and uploaded to a custom hash set file in Hash Sets Manager to be automatically synced with the broader team’s AXIOM and AXIOM Cyber instances.

For enterprise users, you can also use Hash Sets Manager to upload custom hash sets. Custom hash sets can be based on your IT department’s gold build to help pare down the data for investigations.
