Various statistics for the tool:

Build Status: Build Status

In short, plaso is a Python-based backend engine for the tool [log2timeline] (http://plaso.kiddaland.net "Plaso home of the super timeline").

A longer version

log2timeline is a tool designed to extract timestamps from various files found on a typical computer system(s) and aggregate them.

The initial purpose of plaso was to collect all timestamped events of interest on a computer system and have them aggregated in a single place for computer forensic analysis (aka Super Timeline).

However plaso has become a framework that supports:

  • adding new parsers or parsing plug-ins;
  • adding new analysis plug-ins;
  • writing one-off scripts to automate repetitive tasks in computer forensic analysis or equivalent.

And is moving to support:

  • adding new general purpose parses/plugins that may not have timestamps associated to them;
  • adding more analysis context;
  • tagging events;
  • allowing more targeted approach to the collection/parsing.
