Device Seizure is a useful tool that will examine cell phone and PDA data forensically.
Digital forensics has taken a giant leap forward with the evolution of Device Seizure. By combining the technologies of Paraben’s PDA Seizure & Paraben’s Cell Seizure, investigators now have access to a powerful forensic investigation tool for handheld devices. Unlike data management software turned forensic tool, Device Seizure has its roots in digital forensics with such things as PDD (Palm DD command line acquisition), deleted data recovery, full data dumps of certain cell phone models, logical and physical acquisitions of PDAs, data cable access, and advanced reporting.
Accessing phones via IrDA and Bluetooth is like performing a computer forensic exam on a machine connected to the Internet…you open your case up to doubt and suspicion. With support for more devices than ever before and the addition of Symbian 6.0 support, no toolbox will be complete without Device Seizure.
