Autopsy 4.10 releases: Open source forensics tool

Autopsy is a digital forensics platform and graphical interface to The Sleuth Kit® and other digital forensics tools. It can be used by law enforcement, military, and corporate examiners to investigate what happened on a computer. You can even use it to recover photos from your camera’s memory card.

Support for Windows 32-bit and 64-bit operating system, the same support for Linux and OSX (download the source code, compile their own).
