Mobile device forensics

Abstract

In Chapter 10, we’re going to take a closer look at cell phones and the technology that powers them. We’ll look at the types of networks as well as the components that form them. Cell phones are not the only mobile device with potential evidentiary value. Global Positioning Systems (GPSs) are gaining more and more attention from investigators. As such, we’ll look at what kind evidence we may be able to recover from a GPS unit. Finally, this chapter will examine the special handling techniques required to preserve fragile evidence on these wireless devices.
