Dedicated to the branch of forensic science encompassing the recovery and investigation of material found in digital devices, often in relation to computer crime. This field involves the application of several information security principles and aims to provide for attribution and event reconstruction following forth from audit processes. This subreddit is not limited to just personal computers and encompasses all media that may also fall under digital forensics (e.g., cellphones, video, etc.).
I'm the MSP :D
I'm a junior working at an MSP, and we got a ticket from the SD today. One of our government clients wants a tool that can basically brute force into phones and access whatever's on them.
They're already using Oxygen Forensic Detective, but from what I can tell, it only gets them so far. Honestly, I'm not even sure they're using it properly — we've been on site a few times and... let's just say they're not the most tech-savvy bunch.
Anyway, they’re asking if Oxygen can just brute force its way into any device. My guess is no, but thought I’d ask here in case I’m missing something. And if not — does anyone know of tools that can do that kind of thing? Think iPhones, Androids, etc. Cheers!
