Sandline Agility and Adaptability: A Forensics Case Study
Sandline creates custom solution to perform in-place MD5 hash comparisons in corporate Google Workspace tenant.
Summary:
Sandline, a forensic services provider, was approached by an Employment Dispute Law firm to address a data identification and remediation challenge within a Google Workspace environment.
The client required the MD5 hashes of all content to compare against a list of known hashes for allegedly stolen documents. Since Google Workspace didn’t allow admins to search MD5 hashes, Sandline’s forensic team developed a custom Python script to crawl through over 12 TB of content (2 million+ files), creating an inventory with MD5 hashes.

Tell us about a time you helped solve a challenge for a client?
Recently, a client approached us with a request to extract metadata from all files stored within their Google Drive while ensuring forensic integrity, without the need for a comprehensive forensic collection of the entire environment. This task exceeded the capabilities of existing technologies. In response, I developed a unique set of tools designed to tackle this particular challenge. This solution not only successfully acquires all the necessary metadata but also facilitates a targeted forensic data collection process. The results went beyond the client’s initial expectations, underscoring the significance of inventive problem-solving within our organization.
Tell me about your pets and/or family
While I don’t currently have any pets, I’ve always been fond of both cats and dogs and hope to welcome one into my home in the future. As for family, I’m fortunate to have a close, supportive group who visits often. We cherish our time together, whether it’s catching up over dinner or enjoying a Yankee game. Their presence and our shared moments are a constant source of joy and grounding in my life.
