A browser-based macOS forensics tool that reads quarantine databases, file attributes and related artifacts to assemble download provenance.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-30 issue.
For
macOS incident responders and forensic investigators
Worth noticing
It accepts UAC, Aftermath and Velociraptor collections, while noting UAC does not collect attribute values.

Field notes

The collection guide supplies Terminal commands for copying the database with its WAL and journal files, listing attributes, and checking for `.LastGKReject`. It also describes multi-user collection and gives tool-specific routes for UAC, Aftermath and Velociraptor. One important caveat is explicit: UAC does not collect attribute values, so the guide recommends adding a separate Terminal listing.
