Much of the evidence in modern investigations no longer sits on a laptop. It lives on smartphones, which hold messages, locations, photos, and app data, and in cloud services that you don't physically control. Mobile and cloud forensics covers how to collect and analyse that evidence while keeping it admissible.
You'll start with the basics of mobile device forensics: how acquisition works on Android and iOS, what artifacts are available, and the main challenges such as encryption and preserving device state. Then you'll look at cloud forensics, including shared responsibility, IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS environments, and gathering logs and volatile data from cloud assets.
Next up is Malware Analysis & Incident Response, where you'll examine malicious software and learn how to respond to an active incident.
An introduction to mobile device forensics, covering the main approaches, tools, and real-world case studies.
A thorough introduction to the field of mobile forensics and why mobile devices matter so much in investigations.
The biggest challenges examiners face today, including preserving device state, growing device sizes, and unsupported data.
How cloud forensics differs from traditional forensics, including SLAs, IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS investigations, and gathering volatile data and logs.
