DIGITAL FORENSIC TOOLS & CLOUD-BASED MACHINE LEARNING FOR ANALYZING CRIME DATA by MAJEED KAYODE RAJI (Under the Direction of Hayden Wimmer) ABSTRACT Digital forensics is a branch of forensic science in which we can recreate past events using forensic tools for a legal measure. Also, the increase in the availability of mobile devices has led to their use in criminal activities. Moreover, the rate at which data is being generated has been on the increase which has led to big data problems. With cloud computing, data can now be stored, processed and analyzed as they are generated. This thesis document consists of three studies related to data analysis. The first study involves analyzing data from an Android smartphone while making a comparison between two forensic tools; Paraben E3: DS and Autopsy.

  • Forensically Sound Data Acquisition in the Age of Anti-Forensic Innocence
    Forensically Sound Data Acquisition in the Age of Anti-Forensic Innocence Forensisch korrekte Datensicherung im Zeitalter anti-forensischer Arglosigkeit Der Technischen Fakultät der Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg zur Erlangung des Doktorgrades Dr.-Ing. vorgelegt von Michael Gruhn aus Bad Windsheim Als Dissertation genehmigt von der Technischen Fakultät der Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg Tag der mündlichen Prüfung: 2016-11-24 Vorsitzender des Promotionsorgans: Prof. Dr.-Ing. Reinhard Lerch Gutachter: Prof. Dr.-Ing. Felix Freiling Prof. Dr. Zeno Geradts Abstract In this thesis, we tackle anti-forensic and rootkit problems in digital forensics. An anti-forensic technique is any measure that prevents a forensic analysis or reduces its quality. First, we investigate the anti-forensic threat of hard drive firmware rootkits, which can prevent a forensic analyst from acquiring data from the hard drive, thus jeopardizing the forensic analysis. To this end, we first outline the threat of hard drive firmware rootkits. We then provide a procedure to detect and subvert already published hard disk drive firmware bootkits. We further outline potential avenues to detect hard drive firmware rootkits nested deeper within the hard disk drive’s so-called Service Area, a special storage on the magnetic platter reserved for use by the firmware. After addressing the acquisition of persistent data storage in form of hard disk drives, we shift towards acquisition and later analysis of volatile storage, in the form of RAM. To this end, we first evaluate the atomicity and integrity as well as anti-forensic resistance of different memory acquisition techniques with our novel black-box analysis technique.

Abstract Digital Forensics is a branch of Forensic Science pertaining to evidential articles of digital and electronic nature, of which mobile forensics is a major stream. A proliferation of handheld cellular devices and crimes involving mobile phones in the previous years has led to an enormous demand for specialists in the field of mobile forensics. The interesting part is that any mobile phone is incomplete without a SIM card. Therefore, SIM cards are the most common type of forensic evidence to be found in cases where handheld devices are involved, a SIM card is imperative, no matter the phone belongs to the normal mobile phones category or the satellite phones that contain an iDEN (Integrated Digital Enhanced Network) SIM.
