Looks like more Kindle readers than paperback readers. Then again, it’s easier to have the Kindle at your desk than a stack of books when you are fighting through hex, decoding registry values, and spilling coffee on the desk.
Category: X-Ways Forensics
The X-Ways Forensics Practitioners Guide is available in Kindle!
It certainly feels like a long time has passed, but the time is finally here, at least for the Kindle. Order through Amazon and you can have the book on your Kindle in less than a minute.
Although it feels like it took a long time (at least for me), Eric and I finished the book 6 months ahead of schedule. If you don’t have a Kindle, you can at least read the Introduction through the link below. We hope (and know) this guide will be your best friend to your XWF dongle.
Order from Amazon.com at “X-Ways Forensics Practitioner’s Guide“
The XWF Guide discount ship has sailed
But, Amazon still has the discount as of right now! My guess is that Amazon will be ending their 40% discount since the publisher ended their sale. So you may not have missed the boat yet, but you may want to hurry.

Last day for the 40% discount on the XWF Guide!
This is one of those times that procrastinating will cost you money….
What will you tell yourself when you have to spend twice as much for the XWF Guide after tomorrow?

And shipping is free? Wow. Doesn’t get much better than that.

Another free tool for X-Ways, from Magnet Forensics
Magnet Forensics provides a FREE tool at http://info.magnetforensics.com/tsv-to-tln-converter, which converts the X-Ways generated TSV file into the TLN format. From the tutorial, this looks to be pretty neat and you can’t beat the price either.
The tutorial on how to use the TSV to TLN Converter can be found at: http://www.magnetforensics.com/convert-x-ways-tsv-data-into-tln-data-for-ief-timeline/
Now this is good.

A few more days…
Word from the publisher:
book is going to print in a few days.
One of the benefits of this book is that it shows you how to use X-Ways in your cases, by practically showing which buttons to push to get what you need quickly,
The other aspects of the book show how X-Ways works. We show you how you can tweak it do exactly what you want and only what you want at the fastest speed possible.
To everyone who pre-ordered, you helped place the X-Ways Guide at the #7 spot of best sellers on Amazon (under Books > Law > Criminal Law > Forensic Science).

A great interview with Author Eric Zimmerman.
Hacking Exposed recently interviewed Eric in which he spoke a bit on the XWF Guide and his career. Eric’s experience in forensics shows in the book, which if you haven’t heard, should be available on August 2nd.
To make sure you can get a copy without waiting, consider a pre-order at Amazon 🙂

X-Ways Forensics is surely taking off as a strong primary tool. There have been more than a few government and private forensic labs in the world not upgrading their “other” tool in order to migrate to XWF. This book more than satisfies how to do just that.
