[sleuthkit-announce] TASK 1.52 & Autopsy 1.62

[Brian C. <ca...@at...>]

TASK 1.52 and Autopsy 1.62 are now available.

What is New?
- Autopsy has new features that make the Honeynet Scan of the Month
   a little easier:
   - Extract or view any number of consecutive data units (fragments,
     sectors, clusters etc.).
   - The file type (output from 'file') is shown when viewing a data
     unit.

- Autopsy has a bug fix that caused problems when key word searching
   a large file (thanks to Michael Stone)

- TASK has a beta version of a new tool: 'sorter'.
   - It runs 'file' on every file in the system and sorts them based
     on type.  It either just writes the name to a file or will
     save the file.  - It also does extension checking to verify
   the type corresponds with
     the extension.
