These folders contain essential system and app data that are invaluable during forensic investigations, especially when trying to uncover user activity, system settings, and update logs on iOS devices.

We'll walk through how to access these directories, extract data, and analyze the information stored within them. Whether you're a forensic investigator, cybersecurity expert, or simply interested in how iOS organizes its system files, this video will provide you with actionable insights into iOS file structures and how they play a vital role in forensic analysis.

What You’ll Learn:
The Root Folder: What the root folder contains and how it serves as the foundation for iOS system files.
The Preferences Folder: How the Preferences folder logs user settings, app configurations, and why it’s important in forensic investigations.
The MobileUpdate Directory: How to analyze update logs and track iOS updates, which can provide key insights into device history and potential system changes.
Forensic Importance: How these directories can help build a clear picture of user behavior, system configurations, and app usage in investigations.
Extraction and Analysis Techniques: Best practices for accessing, preserving, and analyzing data from these critical directories during forensic examinations.
