Mobile phone security and forensics: a practical approach (2nd ed.)

摘要

Mobile phone security and forensics are clearly of top concern to many users, service providers, and the business and institutional worlds. The complexity of these issues increases at a fast pace, so it will not come as a surprise that a 113-page volume dedicated to them will have some restrictions. The preface states that theoretical aspects, algorithms, and standards are in general outside the scope of this volume, as they are a bit expeditiously categorized as computer security topics. The preface also states that the focus is on aspects of relevance to end users; unfortunately, most topics, except to some extent user interface features, are predominantly relevant to hackers, police, and device management at operators. The reader of this book will not learn any information about security or forensics for smartphones; only some rather primitive GSM handsets and modems are discussed.
