This open access book summarizes knowledge about several file
systems and file formats commonly used in mobile devices. In
addition to the fundamental description of the formats, there are
hints about the forensic value of possible artefacts, along with an
outline of tools that can decode the relevant data. The book is
organized into two distinct parts: Part I describes several
different file systems that are commonly used in mobile devices. *
APFS is the file system that is used in all modern Apple devices
including iPhones, iPads, and even Apple Computers, like the
MacBook series. * Ext4 is very common in Android devices and is the
successor of the Ext2 and Ext3 file systems that were commonly used
on Linux-based computers. * The Flash-Friendly File System (F2FS)
is a Linux system designed explicitly for NAND Flash memory, common
in removable storage devices and mobile devices, which Samsung
Electronics developed in 2012. * The QNX6 file system is present in
Smartphones delivered by Blackberry (e.g. devices that are using
Blackberry 10) and modern vehicle infotainment systems that use QNX
as their operating system. Part II describes five different file
formats that are commonly used on mobile devices. * SQLite is
nearly omnipresent in mobile devices with an overwhelming majority
of all mobile applications storing their data in such databases. *
The second leading file format in the mobile world are Property
Lists, which are predominantly found on Apple devices. * Java
Serialization is a popular technique for storing object states in
the Java programming language. Mobile application (app) developers
very often resort to this technique to make their application state
persistent. * The Realm database format has emerged over recent
years as a possible successor to the now ageing SQLite format and
has begun to appear as part of some modern applications on mobile
devices. * Protocol Buffers provide a format for taking compiled
data and serializing it by turning it into bytes represented in
decimal values, which is a technique commonly used in mobile
devices. The aim of this book is to act as a knowledge base and
reference guide for digital forensic practitioners who need
knowledge about a specific file system or file format. It is also
hoped to provide useful insight and knowledge for students or other
aspiring professionals who want to work within the field of digital
forensics. The book is written with the assumption that the reader
will have some existing knowledge and understanding about
computers, mobile devices, file systems and file formats.
