You are invited to a free live webcast:
iPhone Forensics Demonstration

With the iPhone quickly becoming the market leader in mobile devices, the
need for law enforcement personnel to perform forensic analysis of these
devices is beginning to surface. Unlike most other smart phones, the
iPhone incorporates desktop-like features in an easy-to-use mobile
package. As a result of its high level of technology and available
features, many are likely to use it as a primary device for various forms
of data and communication. While some of a suspect's data can be viewed
using the direct GUI interfaces in the iPhone's software, much hidden and
deleted data is available as well, which may provide for more thorough
evidence gathering.

Existing commercial forensic tools are sadly lacking their ability to
perform deep raw disk level recovery, and so Jonathan will demonstrate how
to install his custom forensics toolkit on any existing model iPhone and
send a raw disk image to a desktop machine. He will also show you how to
recover files specific to the iPhone including deleted keyboard caches,
photos, web objects, and much more.

Jonathan's custom forensics toolkit and his accompanying forensic manual
will be available free to forensic investigators in law enforcement.
