iPhone Forensics Book Rough Cut
O’Reilly’s have just released a “Rough Cut” version on their upcoming “iPhone Forensics” book. Looking at the TOC, it looks very cool. I’ve only just started reading it myself, but already I can clearly tell that if you have an interest in security, you will love this.
iPhone Forensics gives IT professionals, security personnel, and law enforcement the knowledge needed to conduct forensic analysis of an iPhone. This book shows the reader how to recover sensitive information from the device and perform disaster recovery, and walks the reader through various scenarios for recovering different types of information. With this guide, the reader will be able to effectively recover live, lost, or deleted email, photos, voicemail, Google Maps searches, typing cache, and other sensitive data retained by the iPhone. The reader will learn advanced techniques including data recovery, properly preserving and preparing evidence, and technical techniques such as bypassing basic passcode security or recovering data even after a full restore (by say, a disgruntled employee). Finally, the reader will learn how to properly wipe an iPhone clean of all data for resale or reissue - something Apple’s own restore process fails to do.
You can order the book yourself online here.
