That’s something I‘ve never done in my 10 years as editor of this magazine. I have become more and more impressed with Mojave's capabilities as I read more and more about it. In fact, I have become so impressed with the reports of so little problems that I probably will install it even if the 10.14.1 release is not out The blue dots are the sites he visited; the red and gray spots are by mid-November. the sites tracking him. I have included two long reviews of Mojave because there are a Joe Kissel's talk on privacy at our September meeting gave us a number of aspects of Mojave's many features that need detailed needed look on our loss of privacy and what steps we can take explanation.

  • 1 a Digital Forensic Analysis on the Icloud® and Its Synchronization To
    A Digital Forensic Analysis on the iCloud® and its Synchronization to Apple® Devices Rachel Friedman, BS, Josh Brunty, MS, Terry Fenger, PhD Marshall University Forensic Science Center, 1401 Forensic Science Drive, Huntington, WV 25701 Abstract Apple’s iCloud is a popular application on supported Apple devices. Little is known about how to obtain data from iCloud. If an image can be acquired from an Apple device, then there should be artifacts that show iCloud was enabled. Images were taken of the iPod Touch 4G and the MacBook Pro, before and after iCloud was enabled. The before and after images were compared to one another. Both iCloud images of the iPod and the MacBook contained property lists that supported iCloud was enabled. However, no artifacts were found showing the two devices were synced to each other. This information will provide preliminary evidence about how iCloud syncs to Apple devices and what evidence it stores on them. Introduction A revolutionary computing tool of this decade is cloud computing. According to National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), cloud computing is defined as “a model of enabling convenient, on-demand network access to a shared pool of configurable resources that can be rapidly provisioned and release with minimal management effort or service provider interaction.”12 In simpler terms, it is a remote service that allows multiple users to access information using multiple devices. Cloud computing is unique because of five significant characteristics. First, it is a pay-as- you-go service,
