In forensics there is a new file system called ExFat. Microsoft has made a deal with the SD Card Association to make ExFat the standard for all SD cards over 32gigs. Microsoft has protected this property and is doing everything it can to collect licensing fees for ExFat for any device wanting to use the SD Associations standard. Many people do not know are happening and the changes in cameras, which will eventually affect every single new device from laptops, OSs, to tablets and phones.
We have all been blindsided and Microsoft now owns the market for SD larger than 32gigs and will BE PAID for every new device including Linux based due to this change in storage media. In turn this affects forensics, and adds additional costs to forensic equipment and software. I will break down this new format and show how this cost is implemented and educate people about SDXC, where it will be used.
