Database Forensic Analysis with DBCarver
Summary: DBCarver reconstructs database contents from raw database images without logs or system metadata by using page-carving to recover both queryable and deleted (non-queryable) tuples. It fuses live+deleted data to enable forensic queries and shows cross-DB efficiency. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
