What is a Mobile Phone Forensic Expert?
A Mobile Phone Forensic Expert is an individual who has been trained to be able to examine and investigate live and, when possible, deleted data present on mobile phones, SIM cards and memory cards for evidence. The evidence often forms part of legal proceedings and is examined without the loss or alteration of data present.
Our mobile phone forensic expert team are able to examine the data present on mobile phones, as well as any SIM cards and memory cards within them, for any data present, including text and social media messages, call records, voice recordings, photographs and videos.
It is also sometimes possible to recover such files from deleted areas of the phone, although this possibility is reduced by the efforts of the phones companies in pursuit of the privacy of the phone users.
Our experts are able to produce any forensic evidence that has been retrieved from the phones in a clear and concise format that is understandable to the client and, if required, can be used in court proceedings.
Athena Forensics are able to carry out the forensic examination of mobile phones, including the recovery of deleted data from handsets.
Previous Cases Involving Mobile Phone Forensic Expert Examination
The cases involving mobile phone evidence that we are most frequently instructed in are:
- Indecent and Extreme Images
- Drugs Offences
- Family Care Proceedings
- Cell Site Mapping
- Data Theft from the Workplace
- Grooming Offences
Due to the increase in use and the capabilities of mobile phones, the demand for the examination of the within criminal, family and corporate legal proceedings increases annually.
Historically, mobile phones were only used for calls and basic text messaging, however, now they are far more advanced and allow video calling, voice recording, photographing, emailing, social media communication, gaming, file sharing and Internet browsing.
It is also possible to assess the movement and location of a phone through the use of the analysis of the call data records via cell site and call data analysis.
The records of relevance can be used and any findings included as part of a legal case to identify the general location of the phone at a certain time, the movement of the phone over a period of time, for example, whether the phone may have travelled to a particular location at a certain time, or the patterns of location of a phone, for example, to identify the likely location of residence of an individual.
Examples of previous cases that our mobile phone forensic expert team are regularly instructed are available on our previous investigations page.
Our digital forensic experts provide independent opinion based upon the data present on a device in a format that can be used jointly or by a single party family, criminal or commercial investigations and proceedings.
