For the final project, you will be conducting a forensics investigation using one of the following items:
- A smartphone
- A network (ideally, a wireless network)
You will review various forensics tools used with your selected system. Select a tool and use that tool to gather forensics data for analysis. You are simulating the process of gathering this data, so you do not need to investigate a compromised device or system. The project deliverables are as follows:
Week 7 – Prepare an investigative report of the forensics data capture conducted using the tool selected for this purpose. The paper should provide the following information:
- Executive Summary of your investigation, including a description of the device or systems and the tool used for the forensics analysis
- Step-by-step description you used to gather data for analysis
- Report on the information that was obtainable from the device
- Graphics evidence that you conducted the forensics data gathering and analysis
The paper should be in a form that would be used for reporting to a court or a law enforcement agency. Be sure to provide graphics evidence of your forensics investigation effort (Screenshots, reports, etc.). References should be in APA format.
