Producing and sharing scripts with Python

Python is a full featured programming language with a comprehensive standard library. It focuses on readability and development speed which are two large reasons of why we have chosen to integrate it into XACT. Now you can leverage the development done by MSAB and other organisations in order to automatically decode dumps as well as work with .XRY extractions.
 
The Python environment we have chosen to integrate is completely open, ensures transparency for investigators and enables complex operations to be performed in just a few lines of code. For instance it is possible to perform an extraction in .XRY, open the extraction in XACT and run a Python script on the XRY fi le which automatically calculates the hashes of the extracted files and then searches a database for known bad hashes and marks it as, for instance, child pornography. The resulting f le can then be opened in either .XRY or XACT ensuring cross-compatibility with our forensic products. You set the limits.
