From Logs to Evidence: Forensic Workflows in Mobile Devices

Mobile devices play an increasingly critical role in digital investigations, but examining them poses unique technical and procedural challenges. Encryption, privacy laws, and rapidly evolving platforms like iOS and Android complicate every step of the process. In our first installment of the “From Logs to Evidence” series, Amber Schroader, an innovator in shaping global best practices in digital forensics for over three decades, explored tools, techniques, and best practices to address the current challenges in mobile device forensics, including artifact correlation, timeline reconstruction, and more.

Amber’s expertise includes areas such as mobile device forensics, cloud investigations, and data recovery. She has developed tools, protocols, and training programs recognized by industry practitioners for testing smartphones, computers, emails, and gaming systems. Amber is the developer of the “360-degree approach to digital forensics” and the “Forensics of Everything (FoE)” concept, and she continues to influence industry practice through speaking engagements, curriculum development, and contributions to investigative practices.

The Computer Hacking Forensic Investigator (CHFI) program, offered by EC-Council, equips professionals with the essential skills and methodologies to conduct comprehensive digital forensic investigations. The curriculum covers the chain of custody and handling digital evidence, along with the legal foundations of digital forensics. The program also provides 68 hands-on labs and flexible learning options, enabling cybersecurity teams to triage incidents and ensure forensic readiness.
