Investigating RAM in a Mobile Device
This whitepaper by Dave Lauder examines what kind of data can be found in a mobile device’s RAM and how it can support a forensic investigation.
It explains the difference between data “at rest” and data “in transit,” and shows how transient memory can contain valuable information such as user input, app activity, and system data. The paper also discusses proportionality, device states, and examples of real analysis performed with MSAB’s RAMalyzer tool.
Download the whitepaper to learn more about how RAM analysis can reveal new sources of digital evidence.
