MODULE 1: COURSE INTRODUCTION
- Meet the instructor and other students while seeing what’s expected for the week.
- Install Magnet AXIOM and other open-source tools and files that are needed for the course completion.
- A discussion of mobile evidence handling considerations, the current state of mobile forensics, and the history of mobile device extraction types.
MODULE 2: iOS SYSTEM ARTIFACTS
- Learn about the iOS/iPadOS file system, including the structure and the different file types that developers use to store system and application related data.
- Understand how to track device wipes/device migrations
- Learn how to conduct advanced media analysis of iOS devices, including how to track files across iCloud services and files related to third party applications.
- Learn how AXIOM can be used to investigate system related artifacts including Apple Health, Apple CarPlay and iCloud.
MODULE 3: iOS PATTERN OF LIFE ANALYSIS
- Gain knowledge of system related artifacts such as KnowledgeC, Biomes and Powerlog, that can contribute to pattern of life analysis.
- Learn how to manually examine these artifacts, and validate how AXIOM is presenting pattern of life artifacts.
- Understand how to apply AXIOM features such as Timeline to enhance the analysis of pattern of life artifacts.
- Other services such as AirDrop will also be explored, exploring how to track files sent and received via the AirDrop service.
MODULE 4: iOS APPLICATION ANALYSIS
- Understand how to establish what applications are installed on a device, including when they have been installed.
- Learn how to evaluate what permissions have been granted to applications and how this helps to build a profile of a particular application.
