Forensic Scientists and Investigators are some of the fastest growing jobs in the US with over 70K individuals employed in 2008. Specifically in the area of cybercrime and digital forensics, the federal government is conducting a talent search for 10K qualified specialists. Syngress has rapidly become the leader in Digital Forensic publishing and is producing "Mobile Phone Forensics" as part of a complete collection of digital investigation publications. Mobile phones and devices are rapidly becoming as important in a digital investigation as computers. There is not a clear understanding of what can be found on a mobile device, or how they work. This book provides forensic investigators with a basic understanding of what is available, where it is located, and how to obtain the evidence from the device. All of the potential data that resides on an individual's phone could be invaluable in solving crime committed by them or against them. Author Jim Steele is an internationally recognized mobile phone forensic investigator. Digital Forensics jobs have increased 208 per cent since December 2007. Over 70 per cent of all US crime scenes involve seizure of a mobile device.
