YARA-Forensics Description

YARA-Forensics is a collection of YARA rules specifically designed for forensic investigations and malware analysis. The repository contains pattern matching rules organized into two main categories: file-based rules for analyzing standalone files and raw-based rules for examining raw files or memory dumps. The tool leverages YARA's pattern matching capabilities to identify textual and binary patterns within files during forensic examinations. File folder rules focus on detecting magic signatures typically found at offset 0x0 in standard files, while raw folder rules target patterns in memory dumps and raw data where magic signatures may appear at different offsets. The repository provides a structured approach to forensic pattern matching, allowing investigators to scan files and memory artifacts for specific indicators. Rules are organized to facilitate different types of forensic analysis scenarios, from individual file examination to bulk memory dump analysis. YARA-Forensics includes contribution guidelines to maintain rule quality and consistency across the repository. The tool serves as a specialized extension of YARA's core functionality, tailored specifically for digital forensics workflows and malware research activities.
