Notes
Validating digital signatures of an offline system can be problematic.
Microsoft relies mostly on detached signature files to sign Windows
executables. Checking those on an offline system using sigcheck.exe
from SysInternals requires importing the target system's detached
signature files into the anlysis system. To use with sigcheck, slightly
rename the collected GUID directories (keeping the names in a GUID format),
copy them to C:\Windows\System32\CatRoot of your analysis machine, restart
Cryptographic Services, then run sigcheck against the target system files.
This will import the target's signature files into the local analysis
machine's signature database and should accurately validate the target
system's files (which presumabley were collected with other KAPE modules).
Kudos to Troy Larson for providing this workaround technique.
