This book will introduce you to the Android platform and its architecture, and provides a high-level overview of what Android forensics entails. You will see how data is stored on Android devices and how to set up a digital forensic examination environment. Next, you will go through the various physical and logical techniques to extract data from devices to obtain forensic evidence.
