iPhone Forensics

Apple's iPhone has grown to be one of the most popular and highest selling cell phones in the world. The iPhone can be found everywhere and it seems like everyone that doesn't already have one wants one. With the iPhone, consumers are beginning to use their cell phones more and more like a regular computer. They're searching the internet, spending hours on Facebook, managing emails, checking their financials through Mint, publishing blog posts on WordPress, and organizing their lives through the calendar. And through iPhone forensics we can have access to it all.

The iPhone: Computer In Your Hand

As the iPhone's popularity grows, it's use in unsavory activities grows with it. Spouses are using their iPhones to arrange extramarital liaisons, sex offenders are using them to transport child pornography, children are using their iPhones to send harassing messages (aka "cyber-bullying") through Facebook and MySpace, people in sales are using them to take company data with them before leaving to work for a new company, and drug dealers are using the iPhone to arrange meetings. When people either get caught in these acts or are suspected to be involved with them, we get called in to perform a forensic acquisition and analysis of their iPhone. A forensic acquisition of the iPhone can be done quickly, normally in less time than it would take you to eat lunch. By performing a forensic acquisition on an iPhone we're able to search the data found on the iPhone and locate whatever evidence might be present.

iPhone Data: Now You See It, Now You… Do

One of the key aspects of any forensic acquisition, including the iPhone, is the ability to gather, analyze and search deleted data. That means if a person has child pornography on his iPhone and he deletes it thinking the police are about to catch him, we can still recover those photos in a forensically defensible manner. If you think your spouse is having an affair we can image their iPhone to look for not only deleted text messages and call records, but also hidden financial accounts and deleted photos and videos. If your child is being accused of cyber-bullying by another family or school counselors, we can image and analyze your child's iPhone and forensically report whether there is or is not any evidence to support their claims.

Don't trust the handling of your evidence to a forensics firm that is inexperienced in the handling of the iPhone. Our iPhone forensics services will make sure your iPhone data is handled properly, quickly and with the utmost discretion. We use a variety of tools, both hardware and software, to make sure we get all of the evidence and don't miss anything. Some companies not only use only one, limited technique, but even worse use a free, downloadable program that won't keep your evidence forensically sound nor defensible in court.
