Could AI in forensic analysis be more of a liability than an asset? Join us as we explore this pressing concern. 

We kick off this episode with an important update for those dealing with Android extractions. Recent changes to the Android OS and Google Play Store might be causing the Keystore (secrets.json) file to either miss data or not be extracted at all. This brings attention to the vital role decryption keys play in accessing data from mobile devices.

Next, we dive into advancements in forensic tools like MSAB’s new RAM analyzer for XRY Pro users. 

For iOS investigators, if you’re working with Cache.sqlite data, you’ll want to check out iCatch, a tool designed to map the data efficiently and streamline your workflow.

Shifting to the role of AI, we examine a recent legal case that highlights the dangers of relying on AI-generated results without proper verification. Accuracy and repeatability are key, and our discussion focuses on the ethical implications of using AI in forensic investigations. We emphasize the importance of thoroughly validating AI tools to maintain trust in the legal process.
