Foremost is a command-line tool that can be used to recover lost files from a disk or other storage medium. It works by scanning the storage medium and identifying file headers and footers that match certain file types. It then extracts the data contained in those files and saves it to a specified location. Foremost is commonly used in forensic investigations to recover lost or deleted files that may contain evidence of a crime or other wrongdoing.
