Speaker 1: Welcome to the deep dive. You've asked us to get
Speaker 1: into the weeds on mobile device forensics using Chuck Eastams
Speaker 1: and in depth guide to Mobile device forensics as our map.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's quite a detailed guide.
Speaker 1: Our goal today to really pull out the key stuff,
Speaker 1: how these devices get examined, what secrets they hold, and
Speaker 1: give you a solid handle on.
Speaker 2: It all exactly. The source covers a lot, from the
Speaker 2: nitty gritty of wireless tech and hardware to specific forensic
Speaker 2: methods for iOS and Android, even advance things like JTAG,
Speaker 2: chip off data analysis, and crucially the legal side.
Speaker 1: Right. So the mission for you, our listener, is to
Speaker 1: walk away with a good grasp of the core ideas
Speaker 1: and steps in mobile forensics. Think of it as getting
Speaker 1: you up to speed without having to wade through well
Speaker 1: everything yourself.
Speaker 2: Makes sense. It's a complex field, definitely.
Speaker 1: So let's kick things off with how these devices actually
Speaker 1: talk to each other wirelessly? The basics.
Speaker 2: Okay, so the book lays the groundwork with wireless technology,
Speaker 2: makes sense, right, It's how they connect. It starts with
Speaker 2: electro magnetic waves. Talks about frequency, wavelength and that inverse
Speaker 2: relationship they have. Right.
Speaker 1: One goes up the other goes down, but the speedy
Speaker 1: speed of light stays constant.
Speaker 2: Exactly, and frequency measured in hurts, you know, cycles per second.
Speaker 2: We usually see killohertz, memohrts, gearherts, bigger.
Speaker 1: Numbers like Wi Fi that's often two point four or
Speaker 1: five gigaherts, isn't it precisely?
Speaker 2: Those are the carrier waves and the actual data that
Speaker 2: gets put onto the carrier using modulation. AM and FM
Speaker 2: are basic examples the book gives, but modern stuff is
Speaker 2: way more complex.
Speaker 1: Okay, so radio waves are key. How do they fit
Speaker 1: into the tech landscape?
Speaker 2: Well, they're fundamental for lots of wireless tech Wi Fi obviously,
Speaker 2: those eight or two point one one standards in Bluetooth
Speaker 2: often around two point four gigaherts too, devices talk without
Speaker 2: plugging things in.
Speaker 1: Now, the book mentions some ways signals are transmitted. Spread
Speaker 1: spectrum techniques. Sounded a bit technical, Yeah.
Speaker 2: It gets into that. They are clever ways to make
Speaker 2: the signal more secure or reliable by spreading it out. Okay,
Speaker 2: just frequency hopping FHSS jumps between frequencies harder to catch.
Speaker 2: Direct sequence DSSs spreads the signal wider to resist interference.
Speaker 2: Then CHIRP, spread spectrum CSS, and time hobbing THHSS, varying
Speaker 2: frequency over time or transmitting.
Speaker 1: In bursts, different strategies for robustness. Got it? So, with
Speaker 1: everyone on their phones, how do cellular networks handle all
Speaker 1: that traffic?
Speaker 2: Multiple access techniques, that's the key. FDMA gives everyone their
Speaker 2: own frequency channel. TDMA slices up time, gives everyone a slot.
Speaker 2: CDMA is interesting, uses unique codes so lots of people
Speaker 2: can share the same frequency. And QDMA that's more for
Speaker 2: short range.
Speaker 1: Stuff, dividing up the airwaves efficiently. And this tech has
Speaker 1: really evolved, hasn't it massively?
Speaker 2: The book maps it out GSM than adge the bridge
Speaker 2: to three G, than umts LTE and now well five
Speaker 2: G each generation faster, better capacity.
Speaker 1: Five g's the big one. Now anything specific about its
Speaker 1: wireless side we should note?
Speaker 2: Yeah, The big thing is a huge range of frequencies
Speaker 2: it uses. The book lists example like N seventy one
Speaker 2: down at six hunderdguards and N seventy seven way up
Speaker 2: round three to four getter hurts.
Speaker 1: Wow, quite a spread.
Speaker 2: It allows for much more data, lower latency. From a
Speaker 2: forensics view, maybe more data, different kinds of data could
Speaker 2: be recoverable.
Speaker 1: Makes sense, and Wi Fi standards keep evolving too.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, beyond the common ones like GNN. You've got
Speaker 2: ad for super fast speeds AFT using old TV channels.
Speaker 2: That's the one, and now Wi Fi six acts and
Speaker 2: even Wi Fi seven are coming along. Channel bonding is
Speaker 2: a key trick there, combining channels.
Speaker 1: For more speed and security is always a concern with.
Speaker 2: Wireless, absolutely critical. The book runs through Wi Fi security.
Speaker 2: WEP totally broken, now avoid it definitely, Then WPA, WPA
Speaker 2: two and now WPA three, each getting stronger. Finding WEP
Speaker 2: on a device, big red flag for security.
Speaker 1: Good point. Okay, solid wireless foundation. Let's get inside the
Speaker 1: device itself, the hardware.
Speaker 2: Right, The physical bits. Antennas are fundamental. You've got omnidirectional
Speaker 2: sending signals everywhere, and directional which focus the signal. Okay,
Speaker 2: Key things are the radiation pattern, directivity, how focused it is,
Speaker 2: gain which is like signal.
Speaker 1: Amplification measured in DBI or dbd exactly.
Speaker 2: An efficiency, how well it converts power into radio waves, and.
Speaker 1: The area around the antenna matters to different zones.
Speaker 2: Correct, there's the reactive near field right next to it
Speaker 2: than the radiating near field or personal reason. And finally
Speaker 2: the far field the Fraunhoffer region.
Speaker 1: And out there in the far field, the signal drops
Speaker 1: off quickly.
Speaker 2: Yeah, follows the inverse square law. Power decreases significantly with.
Speaker 1: Distance, and even with nothing blocking, you lose signal strength
Speaker 1: just traveling through air.
Speaker 2: That's free space. Path loss gets worse with distance and
Speaker 2: also with higher frequencies. The book gives a simplified formula
Speaker 2: and mentions the freeze formula, which is more complete considering
Speaker 2: antenna games.
Speaker 1: Okay. Now inside translating digital to analog signals, the DSP.
Speaker 2: The digital signal processor yeh, yep, crucial role. It converts
Speaker 2: the phone's digital data into analog signals for transmission and
Speaker 2: vice versa for recep uses math like the discrete cosine transform,
Speaker 2: and importantly the Fourier transform.
Speaker 1: Ah four, You transform always sounds complex? Can you break
Speaker 1: it down simply?
Speaker 2: Sure? Think of a complex sound like a musical chord.
Speaker 2: The Fourier transform is like a prism for sound. It
Speaker 2: takes that complex wave and shows you all the individual notes,
Speaker 2: the frequencies that make it up, and how strong each
Speaker 2: one is.
Speaker 1: Okay. That helps, like decomposing it exactly.
Speaker 2: It decomposes a signal over time into its frequency components.
Speaker 2: The math uses integrals, which you can kind of think
Speaker 2: of as finding the area under the curve to figure
Speaker 2: out the strength of each frequency.
Speaker 1: Got it. Another key piece the SIM card more than
Speaker 1: just the phone.
Speaker 2: Number, right, Oh, absolutely, the Subscriber Identity module. SIM stores
Speaker 2: your MSI, the unique subscriber ID for.
Speaker 1: The network International Mobile Subscriber identity right.
Speaker 2: Plus the ICCID that's the simzone serial number, security keys,
Speaker 2: network info, pimpekey K codes. It's all on there, way
Speaker 2: more advanced than the old NAM systems.
Speaker 1: And these cards have specific contacts and standards.
Speaker 2: Yep, those little gold contacts. They handle power clock data
Speaker 2: in out. It all follows isoie C seven eight seventy
Speaker 2: two standards.
Speaker 1: What other info is stored?
Speaker 2: Well, the IMSI itself contains the MCC and MNC country
Speaker 2: and network codes. There's the LAI locationary identity with the
Speaker 2: LAC code. And they've shrunk over time, full size mini
Speaker 2: micro nano, iPhone five use nano and we have e.
Speaker 1: Sims too, embedded sims right, And.
Speaker 2: They have a simple file system master file MF, directory files, DF,
Speaker 2: elementary files EF for the actual data.
Speaker 1: Amazing what's packed into that tiny chip. Then there's a CPU, the.
Speaker 2: Central processing unit yep, the book calls it the brains,
Speaker 2: which is pretty accurate, executes all the instructions, runs the OS, apps,
Speaker 2: controls everything.
Speaker 1: And radios are getting smarter too. Software defined Radio SDR.
Speaker 2: Yeah, SDR is interesting. It means a lot of the
Speaker 2: radio functions like tuning, filtering, modulation are done in software
Speaker 2: instead of fixed hardware.
Speaker 1: More flexible.
Speaker 2: Exactly, you need an RF front end, fast and a
Speaker 2: good processor, but you can change what the radio does
Speaker 2: just by updating the software sports different standards more easily.
Speaker 1: Very cool now. The book also mentioned things used to
Speaker 1: disrupt or monitor signals, jammers and MSI catchers.
Speaker 2: Right, jammers illegally block signals. IMSI catchers try to grab
Speaker 2: phone identifiers often used for surveillance, important to be aware
Speaker 2: of in forensics.
Speaker 1: Definitely highlights the dual nature of the tech. Okay, hardware covered,
Speaker 1: let's shift to the software running the show. iOS and
Speaker 1: Android makes sense.
Speaker 2: Chapter three dives into iOS. Huge deal in forensics because well,
Speaker 2: iPhones are everywhere. Sure, big folks on the filesystem APFS
Speaker 2: Apple filesystem replace the older HFS plus around iOS ten
Speaker 2: point three. Key features are strong encryption, snapshots, fifty four
Speaker 2: bit file IDs, checksums for data integrity, really robust.
Speaker 1: And iOS has that layered structure.
Speaker 2: YEP four main layers, core OS at the bottom, core
Speaker 2: services media, and Coco touch for the user interface. Gestures
Speaker 2: all that. The book also flax security updates in iOS fourteen,
Speaker 2: like those little dots showing caarenramic.
Speaker 1: Use ah yeah, the recording indicators.
Speaker 2: Random Wi Fi Mac addresses, and something called blast or
Speaker 2: to sandbox I message data more secure.
Speaker 1: Saw a mention of three tools. What's that about?
Speaker 2: It's a third party tool can pull lots of info
Speaker 2: about an iPhone, specs, software's version apps, but the book
Speaker 2: notes getting the really sensitive stuff like call logs often
Speaker 2: means jail breaking the phone first.
Speaker 1: Which isn't ideal forensically not usually no modifies the system,
Speaker 1: and iPhones pack a lot of sensors in screen.
Speaker 2: Tech definitely Olid's greens haptic touch instead of the old
Speaker 2: pressure sensitive three D touch, and sensors galore, proximity light, magnetometer, accelerometer,
Speaker 2: gyro barometer, plus biometrics like touch ID and face.
Speaker 1: ID apples big on security right very they.
Speaker 2: Have a dedicated crypto processor use strong AES two hundred
Speaker 2: and fifty six bit encryption. Remember the FBI and the
Speaker 2: San Bernardino phone.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was a big deal.
Speaker 2: Shows how tough it could be. Encryption is always on
Speaker 2: when locked. Tools like gray key exist. Trying to I
Speaker 2: pass this, but it's an ongoing battle. The book lists
Speaker 2: some older processors to A eight, A nine, A ten
Speaker 2: and their security features. Bottom line, you need to understand
Speaker 2: iOS internals even with fancy tools.
Speaker 1: Okay, so iOS lockdown encrypted? What about Android? Different?
Speaker 2: Beast entirely pretty much? Chapter four covers Android starts with
Speaker 2: those hidden codes.
Speaker 1: You can dial ah the secret menus.
Speaker 2: Exactly like hashtag ninety ninety I, dagger ashig, Zerosi ex
Speaker 2: chech for the Imei. Super useful, but the book warns
Speaker 2: they vary a lot between manufacturers. Got to search for
Speaker 2: device specific ones.
Speaker 1: Good tip and interacting with the system ady B comes
Speaker 1: up a lot.
Speaker 2: Android Debugging Bridge Yeah, it's a command line tool lets
Speaker 2: you talk to the device of developer modis on. You
Speaker 2: can pull files, add me, pull, restore, backups, reboot into
Speaker 2: recovery and dumpsies. Is incredibly powerful for grabbing system.
Speaker 1: Info like listing files and system directories yep.
Speaker 2: LL system ben is an example. Lots of useful commands
Speaker 2: listed in the.
Speaker 1: Book, and Android uses different file systems than iOS.
Speaker 2: Right, no single standard like ap fac F twofs from
Speaker 2: Samsung Flash Friendly files is to name jasha FS two yaffs.
Speaker 2: Depends on the device, the kernel version more fragmentation.
Speaker 1: And security is more varied too.
Speaker 2: Generally, yes, core Android has features, but manufacturers add their
Speaker 2: own stuff. The book mentions Adyntum encryption for devices that
Speaker 2: don't have hardware as support uses cha Chai and poly
Speaker 2: three to five.
Speaker 1: Also, saft flashing tools mentioned odin Android Flash Tool.
Speaker 2: Yeah, those let you write new firmware to the device.
Speaker 2: Can be used for updates, repairs, or trying to bypass security.
Speaker 2: But big warning, mess it up and you can break the.
Speaker 1: Phone, render it useless, risky, very and since Android's open source,
Speaker 1: you can actually look at the code absolutely.
Speaker 2: The book points to cs dot android dot com. Understanding
Speaker 2: the source code, how it boots, how security works can
Speaker 2: be invaluable for deep forensic work. There are even a
Speaker 2: couple of hands on labs in the chapter using codes
Speaker 2: in ADB cool.
Speaker 1: So two very different operating systems needing different approaches. Okay,
Speaker 1: we know how they work, how do we actually get
Speaker 1: the data? Forensic techniques and tools right?
Speaker 2: Chapter five starts with principles that apply to both. What
Speaker 2: can you recover? Call logs, messages, photos, videos, device info, GPS,
Speaker 2: network stuff pretty standardless.
Speaker 1: First step is always documentation.
Speaker 2: Always model, imei, sim details, OS version, get it all down.
Speaker 2: GPS is often huge. Tracking movements, checking.
Speaker 1: Alibis are their official guidelines for this.
Speaker 2: Yes, SWGD Scientific Working Group on Digital Evidence has best
Speaker 2: practices like their mobile forensics pyramid. NIST also has detailed
Speaker 2: guidelines for reports. What needs to be included like what
Speaker 2: examiner details, evidence, description, methods, used, findings, any limitations, data hiding.
Speaker 2: It also mentions DOOJ guidance on accuracy and even cites
Speaker 2: the Federal rules on expert reports. Needing enough detail for reproducibility.
Speaker 1: So someone else could follow your steps and get the
Speaker 1: same result makes sense crucial for court Okay, specifically for iOS,
Speaker 1: any unique steps.
Speaker 2: Or tools thing stop it syncing with iTunes or finder
Speaker 2: automatically preserve the state. Good point then tools doctor phone
Speaker 2: gets a mention. Oxygen Forensics known for being user friendly,
Speaker 2: good with location data. Mobile edit is noted as affordable
Speaker 2: cross platform axiom for magnet forensics two and Celebrate is
Speaker 2: often seen as the big comprehensive solution.
Speaker 1: A whole toolkit available and for Android.
Speaker 2: Chapter six circles back to Android, repeats the general principles
Speaker 2: airplane mode immediately is key mentions, SWGDE and NIST again,
Speaker 2: then really emphasizes using ADB shell commands.
Speaker 1: For navigation and documentation.
Speaker 2: Exactly, L sty list files, CD to change directories, and
Speaker 2: all those useful l's flags AL for details, A for
Speaker 2: hidden files, ALH for readable sizes, AR for recursive, altr
Speaker 2: to sort by time, useful.
Speaker 1: Stuff, and looking inside the apps themselves.
Speaker 2: Yeah, touches on decompiling Android apps APKs, using tools like
Speaker 2: Android Studio to see the underlying code. The focus here
Speaker 2: is more on free or low cost tools and methods
Speaker 2: for Android.
Speaker 1: Okay, so different tools, different os quirks. But what if
Speaker 1: those standard software methods just don't work, say the phone's
Speaker 1: badly damaged or locked down tight Then you.
Speaker 2: Get into the advance stuff. Chapter seven covers j TAG
Speaker 2: and chip off. These are last resorts based pl access exactly.
Speaker 2: You're bypassing the OS, going straight for the memory chips
Speaker 2: on the circuit board. JTAG Joint Test Action Group was
Speaker 2: originally for testing boards, but forensics adapted.
Speaker 1: It sounds like you need serious electronic skill.
Speaker 2: You really do. The chapter actually covers some basics DC
Speaker 2: versus AC power, watts, jewels, components like inductors, capacitors, resistors,
Speaker 2: even has table of symbols.
Speaker 1: So how does j TAG actually work?
Speaker 2: You connect to specific points on the board called the
Speaker 2: test access port or TP. There are pins like TDI, TDO, TCK, TMS,
Speaker 2: test data in, test data out, test clock, et cetera.
Speaker 1: The connection points right.
Speaker 2: You use these to talk directly to the chips using
Speaker 2: a standard protocol i e. E eleven forty nine point one.
Speaker 2: The big challenge finding those tap points. They aren't standardized
Speaker 2: across devices. Definitely, you'd specialized tools too, like a RIF box.
Speaker 2: The chapter shows it software mentions common errors, and again SWGDI, EE,
Speaker 2: NST have standards of practices around JTAG.
Speaker 1: Highly specialized work. Okay, let's say you've got the data
Speaker 1: either normally or through JTAG. How do you make sense
Speaker 1: of it? Databases were mentioned.
Speaker 2: Yeah, chapter eight. Mobile devices use databases extensively, often squadlight
Speaker 2: to store app data, contacts messages you name it. Understanding
Speaker 2: relational databases is key tables, keys, exactly tables hold the data, rows, records,
Speaker 2: calumns or attributes, primary keys, uniquely identify rose foreign keys,
Speaker 2: link related tables together. Helps organize data, avoid repetition, and.
Speaker 1: You use SQL to query these databases.
Speaker 2: Yeah, structured quarry language YEP. The chapter covers the basics.
Speaker 2: Select to get data, update to change it, delete, removing,
Speaker 2: insert to add, and where is crucial for filtering examples
Speaker 2: like selection contacts where city in New York or using
Speaker 2: like to find patterns and or to combine conditions between
Speaker 2: for ranges distinct for unique values, need brackets if column
Speaker 2: names have spaces.
Speaker 1: So SQL proficiency is vital and squilight is the common
Speaker 1: one on phones. How do you view it?
Speaker 2: Several ways? Command line or graphical tools like dB browser
Speaker 2: for Squidal or even Chrome extensions like squid Viewer lets
Speaker 2: you open the database files, browse tables, run SEQL queries directly.
Speaker 1: Very useful, okay. Shifting gears a bit. Cell site analysis
Speaker 1: and smart TVs also covered.
Speaker 2: Right chapter nine. Cell site analysis uses cell tower connection
Speaker 2: records to estimate where a phone was over time. You
Speaker 2: plot the tower connections on a map.
Speaker 1: How accurate is that? Determining the exact handoff point between
Speaker 1: towers seems fuzzy.
Speaker 2: It can be. Without detailed signal strength data, you might
Speaker 2: assume the handoff is midway between towers. There's always a
Speaker 2: margin of air, often biggest for the first tower connection.
Speaker 1: But using multiple towers helps.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it refines the location. If you have timestamps, you
Speaker 2: might even estimate average speed between tower locations, like the
Speaker 2: example in the book.
Speaker 1: Shows interesting and smart. They're like big phones, now, aren't they?
Speaker 2: Pretty much? Many run androids, so you can often use
Speaker 2: ADB for forensics and gable USB debugging connect via IP.
Speaker 1: Use similar commands.
Speaker 2: Yep, gump seas to get system info, ad B polled
Speaker 2: to grab filed like photos can be useful. Restarting the
Speaker 2: ADB server sometimes needed if connections fail.
Speaker 1: Adapting techniques to new devices makes sense. But what about
Speaker 1: people trying to hide data?
Speaker 2: Anti forensics AH Chapter ten Big topic starts with seganography,
Speaker 2: hiding data within other data.
Speaker 1: Like hiding text in an image exactly.
Speaker 2: The book shows how changing just one tiny bit in
Speaker 2: a pixel is invisible to us, but can hide information.
Speaker 2: The image or audio file is the channel Lots of
Speaker 2: tools exist to do.
Speaker 1: This and ways to detect it.
Speaker 2: STAG analysis right statistical analysis looking for noise patterns. Tools
Speaker 2: like STAG detect exist. The chapter shows an example using
Speaker 2: deep sound to hide a file in audio Exammers need
Speaker 2: to be aware.
Speaker 1: This happens, okay, hiding data? What about scrambling it? Cryptography
Speaker 1: also huge phage.
Speaker 2: Symmetric crypto uses the same key to encrypt and decrypt
Speaker 2: think filer disc encryption. Asymmetric uses different public private keys
Speaker 2: for secure communication signatures essential to understand for Iosandroid security.
Speaker 1: How do they work? Basically?
Speaker 2: Symmetric often involves substitution, swapping the letters bits and transposition
Speaker 2: shuffling them, done in multiple complex rounds using algorithms like AES.
Speaker 2: Asymmetric like RSA, relies on complex math with prime numbers
Speaker 2: to create the key.
Speaker 1: Pairs and phones use specific types.
Speaker 2: Yep AES two fifty six bit is common for full
Speaker 2: disc encryption on both platforms. Older stuff like A fifty
Speaker 2: one was used in GSM. Umts has its own authentication methods.
Speaker 1: What about hashing different from encryption?
Speaker 2: Totally different. Hashing is a one way process takes input,
Speaker 2: creates a fixed size fingerprint or hash can't go backwards.
Speaker 2: Used for integrity checking, making sure data hasn't changed. MD five,
Speaker 2: SAHA one, SA two fifty six are common examples.
Speaker 1: Dot it and password tracking.
Speaker 2: Trying to guess or find passwords to decrypt data. Brute
Speaker 2: force dictionary attacks rainbow tables, but strong encryption makes it very,
Speaker 2: very hard.
Speaker 1: Seems like a constant cat and mouse game. Okay, we've
Speaker 1: covered tech and techniques, but none of it matters without
Speaker 1: the legal and ethical framework absolutely vital.
Speaker 2: Chapter eleven dives into this. Starts with rules of evidence
Speaker 2: like FRE nine oh one nine oh two on authenticating
Speaker 2: digital evidence so it's admissible.
Speaker 1: In court and keeping track of the avidance itself.
Speaker 2: Crucial Chaining custody needs meticulous tracking logs software like ASIS
Speaker 2: or Evidence Tracker, barcodes even RFID got to prove the
Speaker 2: evidence wasn't tampered with.
Speaker 1: And when examiners testify, they're experts, right.
Speaker 2: Yes, explot test money relies on specialized knowledge. Federal Rule
Speaker 2: seven oh two defines who qualifies, and the Daubert Standard
Speaker 2: seys criteria for scientific reliability, testing, peer review, error rates,
Speaker 2: general acceptance. Forensic techniques have to meet these standards.
Speaker 1: Can't just search any phone though warrants consent.
Speaker 2: Fourth Amendment territory generally need a warrant based on probable cause,
Speaker 2: especially the expectation of privacy we have with phones. Consent
Speaker 2: is an exception, but it must be voluntary informed and
Speaker 2: the search can't exceed the scope of the consent given
Speaker 2: who can consent matters to owners sometimes parents.
Speaker 1: And ethics foundational, I imagine, non negotiable.
Speaker 2: The chapter mentions AAFS guidelines be professional, don't misrepresent qualifications
Speaker 2: or findings site sources properly. Your duty is to the
Speaker 2: scientific truth, not just winning a case. You have to
Speaker 2: report weaknesses too briefly. Touches on kerminl versus civil cases,
Speaker 2: PI licenses.
Speaker 1: Scientific principles apply here too, definitely the.
Speaker 2: Scientific method peer review for validating techniques Lowcard's principle. Every
Speaker 2: contact leaves a trace, even digitally.
Speaker 1: And the final report ties it all together.
Speaker 2: It has to summarize analysis conclusions based on detailed notes.
Speaker 2: Sans and DOJ have recommendations must include enough detail for
Speaker 2: another expert to reproduce your work. Quality controls key too.
Speaker 2: Lab accreditation like ISO twenty five Investigator training in search
Speaker 2: using validated methods.
Speaker 1: Wow, we really have covered a massive amount of ground
Speaker 1: from wireless signals and hardware.
Speaker 2: Through operating systems, file systems, specific forensic tools for iOS
Speaker 2: and Android.
Speaker 1: Advance extraction like j TAG, data analysis with SQL, cell sites,
Speaker 1: even smart TVs.
Speaker 2: And then anti forensics like stiganography and crypto, and finally
Speaker 2: the critical legal and ethical rules.
Speaker 1: Yeah, quit the journey. Our aim was really to give
Speaker 1: you the listener, a solid practical understanding of this whole complex.
Speaker 2: Field, hopefully equipping you with insights into the tech, the
Speaker 2: processes how digital evidence is uncovered.
Speaker 1: So wrapping up this deep dive, here's something to chew on.
Speaker 1: Mobile tech keeps getting more complex, right, anti forensic techniques
Speaker 1: get smarter. What do you think are the biggest challenges
Speaker 1: ahead for mobile forensics? Where does innovation need to happen
Speaker 1: most it's.
Speaker 2: That constant balancing act security versus privacy versus finding the
Speaker 2: truth in digital.
Speaker 1: Evidence exactly, Definitely food for thought. We hope this exploration
Speaker 1: was valuable and feel free to keep digging into these topics.
Speaker 1: Thanks for joining us on the deep dive.
