What is Infoscava?
Infoscava is a universal file analyzer designed as a desktop application for in-depth file analysis.
Features: File Analysis includes metadata, hashes, text, hex, structured data (JSON), image (EXIF, GPS), Base64, entropy, and byte histograms. User Interface features a tabbed design, file browser, drag-and-drop support, theme toggle, file watcher, keyboard shortcuts, and analysis export. Standalone Windows Executable (.exe) runs with no Python environment needed. Embedded Icon is provided as a custom application icon (icon.ico included in the repository). Standard Installer offers a user-friendly installation experience. Right-Click Context Menu allows "Open with Infoscava" integration. Security Enhancements include basic security checks to prevent loading files from sensitive system directories. Additional Search Tab provides multi-match highlighting, match navigation, and live results.Plugin System allows integration with external tools (e.g. YARA, ExifTool, Sigcheck) and supports native Python plugins for extending functionality. Users can replace many traditional CLI tools by integrating them directly into Infoscava’s GUI, enabling automation, custom analysis, and output rendering in JSON, HTML, or plain text - without altering the core application.Plugins can add new analysis tabs, trigger subprocess tools, and process results using custom Python logic. A sample plugin creator is available at https://github.com/hejhdiss/Infoscava-Sample-Plugin-Creator, making it easy to build and package plugins for custom workflows or toolchain integration.
