What is file carving
File Carving, Data Carving, or just Carving is a general term for extracting data (files) out of raw data, much like “carving” a sculpture from a stone.
It is the practice of searching for files based on internal content, rather than known information such as that supplied by a file system. File carving is a powerful tool for recovering files and fragments of files when a file system is not present, damaged, corrupt, or unknown.
File Carving works by looking for file headers and footers, and then “carving out” the blocks between these two boundaries. Additional accuracy is achieved by analysis of the contents of identified files to assess if internal structure conforms with the identified file type.
Phone Image Carver
Is specifically designed for cell phone forensics. It does not search on sector boundaries, but analyses your phone image file block by block for user select file types.
Does your suspect store .jpeg, .png, .tiff, files on a phone? Find out in 3 simple steps:
Flashing or dumping a cell phone describes creating either a hexadecimal or binary image file of cell phone memory. The procedure follows the established principals of computer forensics where a forensics technician strives to preserve original evidence in a manner which will demonstrate integrity and continuity to a court.
The additional benefit of the hex dumping methodology when compared to real time query based phone analysis is that it allows for the examination of hidden or deleted data within the image file.
