Can FTK analyze cloud storage data?

FTK is designed to support a wide range of digital forensic investigations, including the analysis of cloud storage data. One of the key components that enable FTK to analyze this type of data is the requirement for access credentials. If investigators have the proper user credentials, FTK can connect to the cloud storage services, retrieve the data, and analyze it effectively, just like it would with local data.

This capability allows forensic examiners to investigate user activity, recover deleted files, and perform other analysis tasks in a cloud environment, enhancing the overall effectiveness of their investigations. The ability to utilize FTK for cloud data analysis underscores the tool’s versatility in handling various data sources commonly encountered in forensic examinations.
