I realize it’s been awhile and these tools have really changed since my last post in 2015. Have they changed for the better? Not necessarily. Some tools update so quickly that they lose the basics. For that reason, please test and validate your tools and never trust what is advertised. Your goal should be to determine how the artifacts were placed on the device, not that the artifact exists on the phone. By this I mean – how did it get there? Did the phone suggest it, the user searched for it or was it synced to the device? This level of analysis is something your tool cannot do for you, which is why you probably read blogs like this and learn what you can trust and where you must apply your smartphone skills.

One of the most common questions I am asked is “which tool is the best?” Guess what? There isn’t just one! And I strongly recommend you use more than one, especially for analysis and sometimes even for acquisition (read my blog on iOS 11 from Oct. 2017). These tools are picky and seem to like one device better than another and parsing is not the same across the board. You must know the tool strengths and be able to defeat the weaknesses. To help you out, I am listing the tools that I prefer and my reasons why. These tools are not perfect and they DO NOT have a “Find Evidence” button. Is your tool missing from this list? Offer me a demo and I will try to find time to test it and give feedback. 🙂

As I stated in the last blog I wrote on this topic, I am not going to delve too much into acquisition tools and methods. There are so many out there. Some of the ones I rely on to get my data are Cellebrite UFED (not for iOS devices), Cellebrite Physical Analyzer (for iOS devices), Oxygen, iTunes and my good ‘ole Mac. I always tell my students to try everything when you have a smartphone on your desk. You don’t know how that device was used and what settings are already enabled behind that locked device. You may surprise yourself when you are able to grab everything with the click of the “acquire evidence” button on your tool of choice. However, it’s not always that easy so verify that you have unencrypted data even if you get a dump. Additionally, I recommend you always get a physical dump and logical or backup to help you parse the data. Make sure you test your tools and test them often. Don’t let one hurdle knock you down.

The list below doesn’t include all smartphone tools, but simply the ones I rely upon. If you have others you like, please comment and share. I love hearing what others are using because I don’t have time to test every tool and keep up with the quickly released updates. So, help me out here.

The Heavy Hitting Commercial Solutions (Not in any particular order):

*NOTE: DO NOT RELY ON YOUR TOOL TO TELL YOU HOW DATA WAS PLACED ON THE DEVICE—THAT REQUIRES YOUR KNOWLEDGE! VERIFY ALL LOCATION ARTIFACTS!!!

• Magnet – IEF Mobile – Great for Internet evidence and parsing 3rd party application data. One of the best iOS app parsers out there. AXIOM is now the up and coming tool, but does have some growing pains, so test it for yourself. In both of these tools, the Custom/Dynamic App finder is so useful as location additional databases of interest that you should examine for relevance. This tool easily ingests image files from other tools.
• Physical Analyzer – Probably the best analytical platform out there specific to smartphone tools. It doesn’t parse everything, but it gives us a platform for analysis where we can leverage it find the evidence with some manual carving and hex searches. PA doesn’t seem to omit files it doesn’t understand, which seems to be happening in other tools. Best physical search feature for locating data in raw hex, other than in file system dumps of iOS devices. The new fuzzy models plug-ins are fantastic as they identify databases commonly associated to 3rd party applications that aren’t parsed by the tool. This tool easily ingests image files from other tools.
• MSAB XRY/XACT – One of the only tools that consistently provides access to the raw files (databases, xml, dat, plists, BLOBs, etc.) during a logical acquisition. Guess what, to recover data that the tools don’t parse you need the raw files. This tool give you access to them! XRY is strong at parsing strange backup files from smartphones, such as those created with Samsung Kies.
• BlackLight – Great tool that can run on a Mac or PC! Primarily supports iOS devices, but I have seen students force load Windows Phones and Android devices into the tool to use it as a file system examination platform. However, it was designed to support iOS devices. Haven’t you heard that you should examine a Mac with a Mac? A wise examiner once told me that and it still resonates with me. This tool uniquely pulls out Google Maps and Apple Maps searches that the other tools commonly misinterpret. If you hear me talk about BlackLight, you know that I rave about the Windows hard drive support. Strange that the Mac guys are doing so well on Windows. 😉
• Oxygen – This is one of my new favorites because I am constantly examining 3rd party applications. This tool highlights files the applications use and where they are stored. Guess what? That list is now your cheat sheet. Pretty sweet! I also love the built in PLIST Editor (hex and xml views) and the SQLite editor. This is the best tool for BlackBerry and BlackBerry 10 devices. It acquires the event log and provides a secure way to create a BB backup file. Also counts out all those nasty little databases for you. I wrote a recent blog on Oxygen, so read it if you want more details on this tool. Just like most of the others, there are growing pains, so test it and validate that it’s showing you all of the data.
• Elcomsoft – I use the Phone Password breaker to crack locked BlackBerry device, BlackBerry and iOS Backup files. I also use this tool to pull cloud data. It’s awesome! Runs on both a Mac and PC.

The Other Guys (Not free, but not as expensive as the heavy hitters):

Not in any particular order…

• Andriller – This tool can crack passcodes for locked Android devices and provides logical parsers for iOS, Android and Windows 3rd Party Application files. Free for LE and well worth it for everyone else. The fee is small the results are huge! https://andriller.com/
• Sanderson Forensics tools – Great SQLite support! The SQLite Forensic Toolkit is so useful in recovering deleted data and for converting those pesky timestamps. I love how this tool shows you how the queries are run and what’s happening when you press a button. New to SQLite forensics – start here! Stay tuned for Pauls’ new SQLite Forensics book (it’s fantastic and is not a sales pitch for his tool!) Paul will provide a free demo upon request. http://www.sandersonforensics.com/forum/content.php

Open Source and Other Solutions:

Parsers developed by the community. These people are rock stars and often give back by developing scripts to help us sift through application and smartphone data. Check out their blogs and githubs to get the latest scripts that I rely on to parse the massive amounts of data the commercial tools just don’t support.

• Mari DeGrazia (http://az4n6.blogspot.com/)
  • SQLite-Deleted-Records_Parser – A must have for unveiling deleted data in SQLite databases.
• Adrian Leong (http://cheeky4n6monkey.blogspot.com/)
  • His blog rocks! Adrian hits on hard topics. Read it! (HEIC/HEIF on iOS 11 is one of his latest). Also, all of his scripts have been tested to work in the SANS SIFT.
  • Honestly, he has so many scripts out there – go check them out! (Facebook Messenger, SQLite parsers, coordinate converters and more!)
• Jon Baumann was a student of mine recently who decided to build scripts to fix the things that were broken in the tools. LOVE THAT! https://github.com/threeplanetssoftware/
  • His new sqlite-miner script parses databases containing BLOBs that contain human-readable data. Not only does it identify the contents, it parses them and exports them!
• Autopsy – The Android Analyzer module hasn’t been updated in a while, but it still supports parsing some items from Android devices. It also gives you access to the File System directory tree faster than any commercial tool out there. Most tools make you wait to see the file system during parsing – not Autopsy. Also, the keyword searching and carvers are top notch. http://sleuthkit.org/autopsy/
• iBackupBot – Great for parsing iOS backup files. Works on both Macs and PCs. Make sure you have the latest version that supports iOS 10 and 11.

As I always say, I am sure I have forgotten to give credit to some where it’s due, so I am requesting that you help me out. What tools really help you and how? Is there one script that you found and cannot live without? Do you use something more robust than a Java decompiler for mobile malware? Is there something parsing double Base64? Don’t know what that means??? Take FOR585 and Cindy Murphy, Lee Crognale and I will teach you. Our course is offered almost every month and all over the world. Check it out for585.com/course.

Keep digging in that Hex! The data is there and it’s your job to find it.

Examination

The CCME certification program is not a class, it is a capstone certification program for Cellebrite’s core mobile forensic track. This certification program is designed to measure the knowledge, skills, and abilities of certification candidates based on the completion of time-limited practical exercises and a proctored knowledge-based examination. Earning the CCME certifies that mobile device examiners have attained a level of mastery in the discipline of mobile device forensic investigation methodology as well as a high degree of proficiency with Cellebrite’s Physical Analyzer software. Earning the CCME requires a high level of working and practical knowledge regarding Cellebrite’s UFED technology.

The certification program tests basic knowledge, tool knowledge, and practical experience using two popular mobile device operating systems including Android and iOS. The CCME Process is governed by the Cellebrite Certification Policy which can be viewed in its entirety here.

PLEASE NOTE: As of September 2020, Cellebrite has started using a new online proctoring service - ProctorFree.

What is the CCME Certification Process?

The CCME certification program is a capstone certification program for Cellebrite’s core mobile forensic track. This certification program is designed to measure the knowledge, skills, and abilities of certification candidates based on the completion of time-limited practical exercises and a proctored knowledge-based examination. Earning the CCME certifies that mobile device examiners have attained a level of mastery in the discipline of mobile device forensic investigation methodology as well as a high degree of proficiency with Cellebrite’s Physical Analyzer software.

The certification program tests basic knowledge, tool knowledge, and practical experience using two popular mobile device operating systems including Android and iOS.

The CCME Process is governed by the Cellebrite Certification Policy which can be viewed in its entirety here.

Is there a class associated with the CCME?

There are prerequisites for the CCME described on this page as well as a description of how to prepare for the CCME. In addition, there is an on-demand 3-hour preparation workshop included in the CCME process. You will gain access to the CCME Preparation Workshop after full registration and your fee is paid.

How much does the CCME cost?

This fee allows qualified candidates to enter the CCME process and have the ability to complete the following:

1)Download material associated with the practical skills assessment; and,

2)Attempt to pass the time-limited practical skills assessment to qualify for the CCME Certification Examination.

If the practical skills assessment is passed, candidates qualify to take the time-limited and proctored CCME Certification Examination. The initial CCME process fee covers administrative costs and a single payment to a third-party proctoring service. Although CCME candidates are allowed a total of two attempts at the CCME Certification Examination, fees associated to the proctoring service for the second attempt is the candidate’s responsibility and payable directly to a third-party service provider.

What are the prerequisites?

At the time of initial application, the applicant must possess the following valid certificates:

1. Cellebrite Mobile Forensic Fundamentals (CMFF) – Certificate of Completion
   
2. Cellebrite Certified Operator (CCO) – Current, non-expired certification
   
3. Cellebrite Certified Physical Analyst (CCPA) – Current, non-expired certification
   

Once I am eligible and enroll, how long do I have to complete the CCME?

The CCME process must be completed within 45 days of the candidate’s enrollment date. Failed attempts will require the applicant to restart the certification process again by paying all applicable fees and reapplying.

A candidate’s work or personal schedule is not an acceptable excuse for missing this deadline, therefore there is no waiver available for this time limit. Failure to complete the CCME within the 45-day period shall be considered a failed attempt.

Is each part of the process timed independently?

Candidates have 7 days (168 hours) from the time they click the “start quiz” button on the practical skills assessment activity to complete both the Android and iOS practical. Download links shall be provided prior to the start of the 7-day time limit of the practical skills assessment. Candidates are advised to download and decode the extractions prior to starting the practical skills assessment using the latest release of Physical Analyzer software. Candidates may log in and out of the learning platform as needed to save their answers and continue from where they left off each time they log in. At the end of the time limit, all answered questions will be graded. Unanswered questions shall be graded as incorrect.

Candidates have a single, uninterrupted 3-hour session to complete their scheduled and proctored online CCME Certification Examination. Candidates will receive instructions and are solely responsible to schedule their proctored examination session with a third-party proctoring service. At the end of the time limit, all answered questions will be graded. Unanswered questions shall be graded as incorrect.

A candidate’s work or personal schedule is not an acceptable excuse for missing deadlines. Therefore there is no waiver available for this time limit.

Are there certain technical requirements for the proctored examination?

Cellebrite now uses an online proctoring service called ProctorFree.
Students must be able to utilize the ProctorFree application, which is downloaded and executed via the browser used to navigate the CLC.
We have established the Proctored Exam Preparation Guide page to aid student with preparing for this process.
All students should visit this page prior to attempting the final exam.

Can I ask for help from Cellebrite to complete the CCME?

The CCME is for experienced examiners who must complete tasks and answer questions which will challenge their knowledge, skills, and abilities. Unfortunately, Cellebrite does not answer questions related to the CCME standalone certification tasks. This does not preclude a candidate to challenge questions on the examination.

What software, hardware, and resources will I need to complete the CCME process?

CCME candidates must have:

• Access to licensed either a UFED Touch/Touch2 or UFED4PC.
  
• A computer capable of running UFED Physical Analyzer software.
  
• A dongle or software license to use UFED Physical Analyzer software.
  
• An internet connection to complete the practical skills assessment online.
  
• An active internet connection during the proctored CCME Certification Examination which meets all technical specifications listed at our third-party proctoring service at this page.

A candidate’s failure to have licensed software and/or decode the extractions provided is not an acceptable excuse for a failed attempt.

How should I prepare for the CCME?

The practical skills assessment is designed to allow the candidate to demonstrate their ability to analyze a known data set through the application of best forensic practices, forensic concepts, and methodologies in the analysis of the data. Candidates who have attended advanced smartphone analysis courses, along with investigative experience, should have sufficient skills to pass the practical skills assessment.

The two practical skills assessments will require examiners to know:

• When to and how to use the Open Advanced dialogue.
  
• Database analysis techniques (SQLite, etc.).
  
• How to analyze unsupported (not decoded) iOS and Android applications and related data artifacts.
  
• How to analyze data artifacts associated with uninstalled applications.
  
• How to view and decode hexadecimal values.
  
• How to analyze plist files.
  
• How to identify exact hexadecimal and decimal offsets for specific data.
  
• How to identify user account IDs associated with social media accounts.
  

The CCME Certification Examination consists of 75 knowledge questions that are randomly selected from a bank of questions based on prerequisite course content (CMFF, CCO, and CCPA). There may also be questions related to database analysis. Candidates may use their notes and course material during the CCME Certification Examination.

What happens if I do not pass the CCME?

Candidates receive an attempt at the practical skills assessment. If a candidate does not pass the practical skills assessment, they may not proceed to the proctored CCME Certification Examination and must meet all qualifications prior to reapplying for the CCME Process. Reapplication includes an additional full payment of the CCME process fee.

Log in and click on this link to see how much the CCME Process fee is.

If a candidate does not pass their first attempt at the CCME Certification Examination, they may opt to take a second (and final) attempt by following the policies and timelines listed below. A candidate’s work or personal schedule is not an acceptable excuse for missing the stated time limits.

• Candidates who fail to pass their first attempt at the CCME Certification Examination will receive specific links and instructions to schedule and pay for their second (and final) attempt with a third-party proctoring service.
  
• Candidates are solely responsible to schedule and pay fees associated with the proctoring of the second (and final) attempt.
  
• The second (and final) attempt shall take place only after a 30-day waiting period after the initial CCME Certification Examination failure. There is no waiver available for this waiting period.
  
• The second (and final) attempt shall take place no more than 30-days after the initial 30-day waiting period. There is no waiver available for this waiting period.
  
• If a candidate does not pass their second (and final) attempt at the CCME Certification Examination, the attempt at achieving CCME certification terminates. To attempt the CCME again, the candidate must meet all qualifications prior to reapplying and repeating the entire CCME Process. Reapplication includes an additional payment of the CCME process fee.
  

What is the passing score?

A passing score of 80% or above must be achieved on both the Practical Skills Assessment and CCME Certification Examination to obtain the CCME certification.

Grading for the Practical Skills Assessment: Each of the device examinations shall be graded separately and averaged during the practical skills assessment. Candidates must achieve an average of 80% or higher between both practical skills assessment to advance to the knowledge examination.

Grading for the CCME Certification Examination: Candidates must achieve a score of 80% or higher to pass the CCME Certification Examination.

Can I challenge questions or results?

Upon request, candidates who do not attain a score of 80% or higher on any part of the CCME process may have the practical exercise(s) and/or written examination reviewed by a Certification Assessor who will verify the scoring. The verified final score will be submitted to the CCME Director of Certification for review and documentation. Active CCME candidate will be supplied specific instructions on how to challenge and request a review.

What happens when I pass the CCME?

When a candidate passes the practical skills assessment, they have qualified to take the proctored CCME Certification Examination. Upon passing the CCME Certification Examination, the candidate earns the CCME certification credential and may download it from the learning management system.

How do I renew the CCME?

The CCME certification or recertification must be renewed by its expiration date to remain valid. It is the CCME Certificant’s responsibility to complete recertification requirements as instructed on the learning management system.

Cellebrite Ufed

There is no recertification examination or course available for the CCME recertification. To successfully renew the CCME Certification, each certificant must pay a nominal recertification fee, reaffirm their intention to uphold the Cellebrite Training Code of Ethics and Professional Conduct, and submit proof of continuing professional development and work experience as follows:

• Continuing Professional Development: Cellebrite requires documentation verifying attendance at a minimum of 21 hours of continuing professional development related to mobile device or digital forensics from industry recognized organizations. Acceptable training hours include those offered by IACIS, US Secret Service NCFI, other industry-leading digital forensic training vendors or an accredited college providing an official curriculum of training in digital forensics. Full details on acceptable continuing professional development hours are available in the Cellebrite Certification Policy.
• Work Experience: At the time of recertification application submission, certificants must have examined or supervised the examination of a minimum of three (3) mobile devices during the previous certification period. Full details on acceptable work experience hours are available in the Cellebrite Certification Policy.
• Recertification options are available in the system during the 12 months preceding your expiration date.
• Renewal of certifications which become expired may only be renewed for 12 months after expiration. However, prior to remediation of expired CCME, candidates must have current CCO and CCPA certifications which will require completion of the current CCO+CCPA recertification course separately.
  
• CCME certificates not renewed within 12 months of expiration, will become invalid and the entire process must be started again if a candidate wishes to earn it again.
