Thanks for the comments. I have been banging my head against a brick wall for two weeks now, trying to find a good topic. I like the ntfs time stamping idea, but am afraid it may be too difficult for me to implement, although I have spent most of my digital forensic classes looking at the hex in file systems, making sense of it all, I fear the coding might be too tricky
Anyway my topic idea is due next week. I started looking at gps and geodata, not specifically in regards to data recovery, but more in relation to security and privacy. Ive been reading about location based services and tracking of individuals, all very interesting stuff. Only today Im having a crisis of confidence with the whole thing. Its a very specialized area. Would be hard to build any kind of software application to address any of the security issues.
Ive started looking at file systems again, data recovery, maybe even gps related. I have good java skills with about one year of digital forensics in college. Ive looked at images, audio, file systems(fat,ntfs)some data carving,email, some basic stuff really.
I wonder does anyone have any suggestions, in line with my capabilities.
I could really do with the help. I plan to get going again tomorrow with research. I will probably continue with the gps stuff for now, in the hope it might all click, maybe look over some old stuff that Ive done to see what I can come up with
thanks
