Covering tracks with anti-forensics modules

Metasploit provides a good number of features to cover tracks. However, from a forensics standpoint, they still might lack some core areas that may reveal activities and useful information about the attack. There are many modules on the internet that tend to provide custom functionalities. Some of them do make it to the core Metasploit repositories, while some go unnoticed. The module we are about to discuss is an anti-forensics module offering a ton of features, such as clearing event logs, clearing log files, and manipulating registries, .lnk files, .tmp, .log, browser history, Prefetch Files (.pf), RecentDocs, ShellBags, Temp/Recent folders, and restore points. Pedro Nobrega, the author of this module, has worked extensively on identifying the forensic artifacts and created this module, while keeping forensic analysis in mind. We can get this module from https://github.com/nipunjaswal/msf-auxiliarys/blob/master/windows/auxiliarys/CleanTracks...
