Disclosure

This is one of our own courses, and we are paid when someone buys it. It is listed here on the same terms as everything else in this directory — with its real limitations stated below — because a directory that hid its publisher’s own offerings among neutral recommendations would not be worth reading. Several entries on this page cost less than ours, and some cost nothing.

Strengths

  • Mobile evidence is now in almost every matter, and the courtroom-facing treatment of it is genuinely underserved.
  • Focused on authentication and challenge, which is where mobile evidence is actually won and lost.
  • $19.99 with lifetime access.

Limitations

  • No tool work whatsoever. It will not teach you to run a Cellebrite or Magnet extraction, and mobile forensics is a tooling-heavy discipline.
  • Mobile extraction capability changes with every handset and OS release, so any video course on this subject dates faster than most.
  • No accreditation and no guaranteed CLE credit.
  • An examiner who needs to perform mobile extractions should be looking at IACIS ICMDE or the Cellebrite and Magnet entries in this directory instead.
