IPED is an open source digital forensic tool developed by the Brazilian Federal Police for processing and analyzing digital evidence from disk images and file systems. It offers command-line batch processing, hash deduplication, file carving, and an integrated GUI for case analysis.

Use cases

  • analyze disk images seized at crime scenes
  • recover deleted files from forensic evidence
  • deduplicate and categorize large case files by hash
  • process E01, DD, VHD, and UFDR forensic image formats
  • build searchable indexes of digital evidence
  • run portable forensic cases from removable drives

When to choose

  • you need a free, open source alternative to commercial forensic suites like EnCase or FTK
  • you process very large cases (hundreds of GB to millions of items) with multithreaded performance
  • you need multiplatform support on Windows and Linux
  • you want portable cases that run without installation

When to avoid

  • you need a simple point-and-click tool with minimal learning curve
  • you require PhotoDNA or other law-enforcement-only features without proper authorization
  • you need a lightweight utility for casual file recovery rather than full forensic case processing
