Dedicated to the branch of forensic science encompassing the recovery and investigation of material found in digital devices, often in relation to computer crime. This field involves the application of several information security principles and aims to provide for attribution and event reconstruction following forth from audit processes. This subreddit is not limited to just personal computers and encompasses all media that may also fall under digital forensics (e.g., cellphones, video, etc.).
Hope this belongs here.
I’m working on a BEC case at one of our clients and using UAC logs to collect the evidence. The Microsoft Extractor Suite and Analyzer Suite are a blessing and help me a lot (shout-out to the creators).
But sometimes you need the power of AI to make certain connections, summarize events or use raw logs to correlate findings. This is where the shoe pinches. Since I’m working with client data, I don’t want to expose it to external entities.
I’ve experimented with local LLMs on RTX 4090s, but I’m not getting the same results as with OpenAI or ChatGPT (especially on larger datasets). We have some servers with Hetzner, and I noticed that both Hetzner and OVHCloud offer dedicated AI servers.
So here’s the question: Is anyone successfully using, for example, Ollama with OpenWebUI on self-hosted servers? Is it possible to get the same results that OpenAI offers?
