In this tutorial, we will be discussing how to install Hindsight on Kali Linux.
Before installing Hindsight, we need to install the required dependencies. These dependencies can be installed using the following command:
sudo apt-get install build-essential git python-dev python-pip libffi-dev libssl-dev
Now we can proceed with the installation of Hindsight. To install Hindsight, execute the following commands in the terminal:
git clone https://github.com/mozilla-services/hindsight.git
cd hindsight
make
After the installation is complete, we can verify that Hindsight is installed correctly by running the following command:
./hindsight --help
This command will display the help page for Hindsight.
We can use Hindsight to analyze browser history by executing the following command:
./hindsight -i <path/to/profile/directory> -o <path/to/output/directory>
Replace <path/to/profile/directory> with the path to the browser profile directory that you want to analyze and <path/to/output/directory> with the path to the directory where you want to store the output.
In this tutorial, we have learned how to install Hindsight on Kali Linux and how to use it to analyze browser history. Hindsight is a powerful tool for digital forensic investigation and can help in uncovering evidence in a case.
