Special Forums Cybersecurity UNIX files timestamping - Need experts opinion as testimonial Post 302896436 by docflied on Monday 7th of April 2014 02:34:46 PM

From further readings and own understanding almost all NIX file systems doesn't store filenames in i-node. Many people seem saying that file names are not recoverable when restoring an i-node. I am a confused.

What I understood is when recovering the i-node one have a chance to recover MAC-timestamps and the i-node number. If there was a process using the i-node number then there is a backup of the file somewhere in the O.S. sub directories (related to the device number)

Coronn688 may be there is a NIX flavor you are aware about that keep filenames in the i-node?

thank you anyway
