NetKitty is an easy to use Java-based program that easily allows you to transfer files between computers. It uses Netcat to open a port and listen for incoming connections from another device. Before NetKitty, Netcat could only be executed by typing commands directly into a command shell, so NetKitty takes the reins and creates a very user-friendly graphical user interface. There are two main parts to NetKitty; the sender and the listener. The listener is first used to “listen” and wait for an incoming connection. Once listening, the sender can be used on another computer to send a file to the computer that is running the listener. NetKitty can be very beneficial to the digital forensics community, as it allows the easy transfer of files or images which can then be forensically examined.
