Leveraging Magnet Acquire for Mobile Phone Collections
Magnet ACQUIRE lets digital forensic examiners quickly and easily acquire forensic images from iOS or Android devices, hard drives, and removable media—and is available at no cost to the forensic community.
Magnet ACQUIRE combines an intuitive user interface with reliable and fast extractions, giving you the data quickly and easily. On top of that, the quality of data you’ll get will be maximized and activity logging and documentation will allow you to understand which methods were used. In this talk, find out how Magnet ACQUIRE can be utilized for:
- Combined computer and mobile acquisition – Acquire smartphones and tablets as well as image laptops, desktop computers, and removable media using two different methods of acquisition.
- Choosing an extraction process – Get a quick extraction from all iOS and Android devices or a full extraction through a physical image of rooted Android devices or file system logical images of jailbroken iOS devices.
- Getting more evidence from limited options – Physical images are becoming increasingly difficult to acquire across all of your mobile forensic tools but ACQUIRE will get you the most evidence in the fastest way possible.
- Cutting through the noise with targeted acquisition – Get the areas of the hard drive most commonly known for containing important evidence and eliminate unnecessary files that won’t really support your case from the beginning.
