The Challenge

Database breaches and disputes often require reconstructing exactly what happened at the storage layer — but InnoDB's tablespace files and MySQL's binary logs aren't designed to be correlated with each other, making that reconstruction hard to do reliably.

My Approach

We proposed a tool that parses InnoDB tablespace files alongside binary logs to reconstruct a database's transaction history for forensic investigation. I'm currently working on the system architecture and design.

Current Status

Still in active development — the current focus is finalizing the system architecture before implementation begins.
