    Important
    • The local archive does not have encryption, and remains on the endpoint until deleted. This may allow access to sensitive information to anyone with access to the file system or reveal the presence of an ongoing investigation.
    • Evidence archives take up hard drive space and may impact endpoint performance.
  5. Click Download TMIRT (download-icon.png) to download the Trend Micro Incident Response Toolkit.
  6. Deploy the toolkit to the endpoints on which you want to collect evidence.
  7. Execute the toolkit.
    1. Extract the contents of the zip archive.
    2. Run TMIRT.
      • For Linux, execute TMIRT.sh as the root user.
      • For Windows, execute TMIRT.ps1 as an administrator.
  8. Upload the evidence packages the toolkit generates to the Forensics app.
    Tip
