In this project, you will write a 13- to 21-page white paper that describes the current state of mobile incident response and investigation. The context is that as a forensic investigator, you are providing an objective overview of mobile technology and digital forensic and incident response capabilities for a law enforcement unit that has limited experience and capability with mobile forensics.
Your white paper will describe mobile investigative challenges and the techniques and technologies available to perform mobile forensic examinations. You will also provide your perspective on the future of mobile forensics—the biggest threat to mobile forensics in years to come, and the biggest opportunity for investigators of mobile cybercrime. The most successful papers will include references to resources outside of the classroom.
There are five steps in this project. Each step focuses on one required element of the paper to be submitted at the end of this project.
