Chrome

Chrome is a popular web browser created and maintained by Google.

Artemis supports parsing the list of artifacts below:

  • History
  • Downloads
  • Cookies
  • Autofill
  • Bookmarks
  • Login Data
  • Extensions
  • Preferences
  • Detect Incidental Party State (DIPS)

You have to use the artemis api in order to collect Chrome data.
Since Chrome is based on Chromium, many of the Chrome artifacts will be identical to Chromium

Other parsers:

  • Any program that read a SQLITE database

References:

Sample API Script

import { Chrome } from "./artemis-api/mod";
import { PlatformType } from "./artemis-api/src/system/systeminfo";

function main() {
const client = new Chrome(PlatformType.Darwin);
console.log(JSON.stringify(client.cookies()));
}

main();
