Lab – by Paraben Device Seizure

For this weeks lab, you will need to access the software through VM. Once you are in VM, go to the Start Menu, find Paraben and the click Device Seizure. Please note that some of the information in the videos deals with actually working with physical devices. Since this is an online class, you will be working only with images of devices. With that being said, you will need to download the image of the Palm PDA from Blackboard to your desktop. The image must ALWAYS be copied to the desktop in order to open it in the software. Once the image is on the desktop you can Click the image and it will open in Device Seizure or you can import the file by opening the software then clicking open case. Once the image is in the software you will need to click SORT from the top task bar. If you do not Sort the data you will not be able to analyze the image. For this weeks case you are only responsible for finding the answers to the questions being asked. You will need to explore the software to find the answers. Mobile forensics is very different than computer forensics. There is not a one size fits all for all phones. Throughout the next few weeks you will see the file structures change from phone to phone. You will learn how to analyze the device images by trial and error. Unlike computer forensics, each devices file structure is different. You must work with the image and learn where evidence is located. As the image gets more advanced so will the options. You will use the first couple of labs to become familiar with the tool. In addition to answering the questions in detail, you need to write a 1-page report.
