Why Apple and Google?
Apple and Google provide 99% of the world’s mobile phone operating systems (iOS and Android) and yet very few law enforcement officers know about the vast amount of information and potential evidence these companies have, much less use this data in their investigations.
Critical information can be obtained even when the mobile phone is locked or not in police custody. Additionally, existing forensic tools are capable of accessing some of the data stored in the cloud much more quickly than waiting for a search warrant to be returned.
COURSE OVERVIEW
This course is offered as a 1-Day (8-hour) virtual course.
This training will increase law enforcement officer’ understanding of the types of relevant evidence and intelligence that are typically possessed by Apple and Google, how to obtain it, how to manage it, and how to use it.
Imagine investigating a cold case homicide and finding a Google search from the day after the murder for “How to dispose of a body?” This exaggerated example is exactly why legal process to Apple & Google can be such effective (and underutilized) investigative tools.
Students will learn about the different types of evidence available from providers, and effectively writing legal process to Apple & Google to capture all available potential evidence. Students will explore what these data productions from Apple & Google look like, strategies for working through potentially large data productions, and unique warrant situations such as search term (“keyword”) warrants.
