Introducing the EnCase Smartphone Examiner

Guidance Software We’ve already mentioned that EnCase® Forensic v7 will feature smartphone acquisition. But investigators can collect critical evidence on smartphones now with the EnCase® Smartphone Examiner.

The tool can help law enforcement, security analysts, and e-discovery specialists who need to review and collect data from smartphone and tablet devices, such as the iPhone and iPad. Investigators can process and analyze smartphone device data alongside other types of digital evidence within Guidance Software tools.

We discussed iPad and iPhone support in a January blog post. In the post, Andy Kleinick, Officer-in-Charge of the LAPD Computer Crimes Unit said:
“As we do digital investigations, we’re encountering more Apple devices including iPads and iPhones. EnCase has been our primary digital forensics software for more than ten years. By supporting these popular devices Guidance Software will greatly assist my Department in collecting and analyzing these new forms of evidence through a court-vetted and effective tool.”

EnCase® Smartphone Examiner lets investigators capture evidence from devices that use Apple iOS, HP Palm OS, Windows Mobile OS, Google Android OS and RIM Blackberry OS. Investigators can also acquire data from Blackberry and iTunes backup files as well as a multitude of SD cards. Once acquired, the evidence can be seamlessly integrated into EnCase® Forensic for full investigation.

The EnCase® Smartphone Examiner is available now. It is also included with EnCase® Forensic Deluxe promotion.
