Google collects massive amounts of information from registered customers. Elcomsoft Cloud Explorer is the only forensic tool on the market to extract information from the many available sources, parse and assemble the data to present information in human-readable form.
(1) The passcode unlock and forensically sound, checkm8-based extraction are available for the iPhone 4s, iPod Touch 5, iPad 2 and 3 devices via a custom flashed Raspberry Pi Pico board, which is used to apply the exploit. The firmware image is provided with iOS Forensic Toolkit; the Pico board is not supplied.

We are excited to announce the release of an open-source software for Orange Pi R1 LTS designed to provide firewall functionality for sideloading, signing, and verifying the extraction agent that delivers robust file system imaging and keychain decryption on a wide range of Apple devices with iOS Forensic Toolkit. This development aims to address the growing security challenge faced by forensic experts when sideloading the extraction agent using regular and developer Apple accounts.
Acquiring data from Apple devices, specifically those not susceptible to bootloader exploits (A12 Bionic chips and newer), requires the use of agent-based extraction. This method allows forensic experts to obtain the complete file system from the device, maximizing the amount of data and evidence they can gather using the iOS Forensic Toolkit. In this article, we will discuss some nuances of agent-based iOS device acquisition.
For forensic experts dealing with mobile devices, having a reliable and efficient forensic solution is crucial. Elcomsoft iOS Forensic Toolkit is an all-in-one software that aids in extracting data from iOS devices, yet it is still far away from being a one-button solution that many experts keep dreaming of. In this article, we will walk you through the preparation and installation steps, list additional hardware environments, and provide instructions on how to use the toolkit safely and effectively.
The newly released iOS Forensic Toolkit 8.0 delivers forensically sound checkm8 extraction powered with a command-line interface. The new user experience offers full control over the extraction process, yet mastering the right workflow may become a challenge for those unfamiliar with command-line tools. In this quick-start guide we will lay out the steps required to perform a clean, forensically sound extraction of a compatible iPhone or iPad device.
The first checkm8-based solutions in mobile forensics were built with checkra1n, a public, closed-source jailbreak that is based on the open-source checkm8 exploit. checkra1n extractions deliver the same amount of data as any other low-level extraction method. However, the use of checkra1n inevitably alters the content of the device, which impacts its use in mobile forensics.
With this update, Elcomsoft iOS Forensic Toolkit becomes the most advanced iOS acquisition tool on the market. The toolkit now supports all possible acquisition methods including advanced logical, agent-based and checkm8-based low-level extraction.
The transition to a command-line interface offers users a level of granular control that could not be achieved before. This granular control over the extraction process is crucial given the diverse range of iOS devices and system versions. With the CLI, forensic experts can respond to unexpected hiccups or device-specific requirements during the extraction process. Ultimately, the shift from a menu-based system to a command-line interface reflects our commitment to providing forensic professionals with the tools they need to catch up with the increasing diversity of the iOS ecosystem.
iOS Forensic Toolkit 8 for Mac introduces a new extraction method for select iOS devices based on the modified bootloader. The new extraction method is the cleanest yet, enabling repeatable, verifiable extractions and forensically sound workflow.
The forensically sound bootloader-level extraction process is available for 76 Apple devices ranging from the ancient iPhone 4 all the way up to the iPhone X, a large number of iPad, iPod Touch, Apple Watch, and Apple TV models. The newly developed checkm8 extraction process supports a range of major OS releases from iOS 7 through iOS 16.2 in three different flavors (iOS, tvOS, watchOS) for three different architectures (arm64, armv7, armv7k).
Why would you want to do such a thing? Well aside from hacker curiosity the main market for forensics software is law enforcement. In court cases there is often a requirement for detailed recording and analysis of mobile phone devices (text messages, emails, phone voicemail messages, call records, photos and so on).
