Conceptual Study of Mobile Forensics

The use of digital devices in day to day life has increased tremendously. Mobile devices have become an vital part of our day to day routine and they are prone to facilitating illegal activity or otherwise being involved when crimes occur. Whereas computers, laptops, servers, and gaming devices might have many users, in the vast majority of cases, mobile devices generally belong to an individual. The science behind recovering digital evidence from mobile phones is called mobile forensics. Digital evidence is defined as data and information that is stored on, received, or transmitted by an electronic device that is used for investigations. Digital evidence encompasses any and all digital data that can be used as evidence in a case. Mobile devices present many challenges from a forensic viewpoint. With new models being developed each day, it is extremely difficult to develop a single process or tool to address all the possibilities an investigator may face. Court cases also need to be taken into consideration as mobile devices are being seized and analyzed. Mr. I. A. Attar | Mr. M. M.
