Who This Book Is For

If you are a digital forensics examiner daily involved in the acquisition and analysis of mobile devices and want to have a complete overview of how to perform your work on iOS devices, this book is definitely for you.

In Detail

Mobile device forensics relates to the recovery of data from a mobile device. It has an impact on many different situations including criminal investigations and intelligence gathering. iOS devices, with their wide range of functionality and usability, have become one of the mobile market leaders. Millions of people often depend on iOS devices for storing sensitive information, leading to a rise in cybercrime. This has increased the need to successfully retrieve this information from these devices if stolen or lost.

Learning iOS Forensics will give you an insight into the forensics activities you can perform on iOS devices. You will begin with simple concepts such as identifying the specific iOS device and the operating system version and then move on to complex topics such as analyzing the different recognized techniques to acquire the content of the device. Throughout the journey, you will gain knowledge of the best way to extract most of the information by eventually bypassing the protection passcode. After that, you, the examiner, will be taken through steps to analyze the data. The book will give you an overview of how to analyze malicious applications created to steal user credentials and data.

Acknowledgments

My first thank you goes to Pasquale Stirparo. We met in 2009 during a course on digital investigations at the University of Milan. Since then, we became great friends, both with a common passion for digital forensics and the mobile world. This book is the outcome of our continuous discussions on the subject and the exchange of knowledge and opinions. Thank you, Pas! It's always nice working with you!

We, the authors, would like to thank Marco Carlo Spada and Paolo Dal Checco, for their valuable help in revising the entire book and their useful suggestions to improve the final result.

I also want to thank Marco Scarito and Francesco Picasso, my colleagues and friends. Without their daily efforts and our continuous exchange of knowledge, this book would not have been written. I also want to thank my parents, Roberta and Mario, and their (and also mine!) dogs, Nina and Sissi, for supporting me every day!

Then, I would like to thank all the mentors I've had over the years: Giovanni Ziccardi, Gerardo Costabile, Rob Lee, Raul Siles, Jess Garcia, Alessandro Borra, and Alberto Diaspro. Also, a big thank you to my friends and colleagues: Giuseppe Vaciago, Litiano Piccin, Davide Gabrini, Davide D'Agostino, Stefano Fratepietro, Paolo Dal Checco, Andrea Ghirardini, Francesca Bosco, Daniela Quetti, Valerio Vertua, Andrey Belenko, and Vladimir Katalov. Without learning from these teachers and exchanging information with my colleagues, there is not a chance I would be doing what I do today. It is because of them and others who I may not have listed here that I feel proud to pass my knowledge on to those willing to learn.
