Digital Forensics: Cell phones, Smartphones,
and other Gadgets
Daniel Embury, Senior Forensic Hardware Engineer
R&D Team Leader, Technical Analysis Team, Technological
Crime Branch, Royal Canadian Mounted Police
This presentation will provide participants with an overview
of the latest use of items including Smartphones and other
electronic gadgets, and the challenges they present to
digital forensic analysis. The presentation will address
specific issues related to such devices including the manner
of the forensic search and the criminal use of BlackBerry
devices connected to fully secure/encrypted domestic
and offshore servers and the challenges/roadblocks that
this presents.
The discussion will also include information about how
such devices have become an integral part of the criminal’s
electronic “footprint” and what types of evidence can
be discovered from the forensic analysis of such devices.
Finally, it will provide participants with information about
the considerations which need to go into presenting
such evidence, the possible uses of it (inculpatory and
