Hello All,

Apologies for such a broad question, and more of an opinion required than a direct question.
I am looking for reading material, preferably purchasable books, on mobile phone forensics, on either Android, iOS or both. Quite in depth opposed to a generic overview of possible. (The more recent, the better).

I have of course conducted the initial google search, however, with books it is often better to capture advice on the books from those whom have already read or have delved into parts of them.

Thank you in advance.

J

Good morning,

"Practical Mobile Forensics" (Mahalik, Tamma, and Bommissety) - It covers the various platforms in depth, including iOS, Android, Blackberry, and Windows. The content is similar to the SANS Advanced Smartphone Forensics course taught by one of the authors, Heather Mahalik, and it was excellent.

Hello,

Please download and read DEFT Linux (Digital Evidence & Forensics Toolkit)'s user manual found at http//www.deftlinux.net/deft-manual/

The chapter on mobile forensics shows how tools are actually extracting evidence from mobile devices.

DEFT the software and DEFT's manual are free of charge.

Please donate to them if you find the information useful, which I believe you will!

Regards,

Larry

There are two I would suggest to get apart from manuals from the specific tool you use to acquire (XRY and Cellebrite to name a couple)

Learning iOS Forensics
By Mattia Epifani; Pasquale Stirparo
Publisher Packt Publishing
Pub. Date March 10, 2015
Web ISBN-13 978-1-78355-352-5
Print ISBN-13 978-1-78355-351-8

and

Learning Android Forensics
By Donnie Tindall; Rohit Tamma
Publisher Packt Publishing
Pub. Date April 30, 2015
Web ISBN-13 978-1-78217-444-8
Print ISBN-13 978-1-78217-457-8

Both provide a pretty in depth view of the phone OS involved and forensics thereof.
