Forensic laboratories are frequently subjected to mobile devices that are assailed by shock or forced damage which might be the result of intentional efforts to destroy proof from the devices or accidental exposure. Chip-off technique is an effective method for data retrieval from such kind of exhibits. However, nowadays all mobiles phones are securely encrypted with full disk encryption (FDE) or file-based encryption (FBE) which makes chip-off forensics an improbable process to successfully retrieve data. In many of these cases, the encryption is on the hardware and hence, the device could be successfully decrypted by bringing it in its original condition. Thus, the original user data can be obtained for investigative purposes. This process can be enabled by replacement of electronic parts of the original device which contains user data and decryption keys i.e. PCB to the new host. This research paper covers a case study of a mobile phone obtained in broken and shattered condition whose diagnosis of PCB and subsequent actions led to data recovery.

During the past decade, technological advances in mobile phones and the development of smart phones have led to increased use and dependence on the mobile phone. The explosion of its use has led to problems such as fraud, criminal use and identity theft, which have led to the need for mobile phone forensic analysis. In this regard, the authors discuss mobile phone forensic analysis, what it means, who avails of it and the software tools used.

Reflectance Measurements

Since the introduction of commercial Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) microscopic systems in 1983, IR microscopy has developed as an important analytical tool in research, industry and forensic analysis. Because of the frequent encounter of small quantities of physical evidence found at crime scenes, spectroscopic IR microscopes have proven particularly valuable for forensic applications. Transmittance and reflectance measurements have proven very useful. Reflection-absorption, specular reflection, and diffuse reflection have all been applied. However, it has been only very recently that an internal reflection (IRS) objective has been commercially introduced.The IRS method, also known as attenuated total reflection (ATR), has proven very useful for IR analysis of standard size samples. The method has been applied to adhesive tapes, plastic explosives, and general applications in the analysis of opaque materials found as evidence. The small quantities or uncontaminated areas of specimens frequently found requiring forensic analysis will often be directly applicable to microscopic IRS analysis.

In the present study we link self-report-data on personality to behavior recorded on the mobile phone. This new approach from Psychoinformatics collects data from humans in everyday life. It demonstrates the fruitful collaboration between psychology and computer science, combining Big Data with psychological variables. Given the large number of variables, which can be tracked on a smartphone, the present study focuses on the traditional features of mobile phones – namely incoming and outgoing calls and SMS. We observed N = 49 participants with respect to the telephone/SMS usage via our custom developed mobile phone app for 5 weeks. Extraversion was positively associated with nearly all related telephone call variables. In particular, Extraverts directly reach out to their social network via voice calls.
