    Webinar - Checkm8 & CheckRa1n: New Tools for iOS Extractions

    If anything about mobile forensics could be considered buzzworthy in the past year, it would be the release of the Checkm8 Boot ROM exploit created by axi0mX in October.

But beyond the hype, what data can you actually access using this newfound exploit, and what do you do once you've extracted data using Checkm8? In this webinar, we will discuss the benefits, challenges, and usefulness of Checkm8 and Checkra1n to mobile forensic examiners and investigators. We will also explore how examiners can use Checkra1n to gain access to devices and what that access means in practical terms for investigations.

Services include, but are not limited to, assistance with protective orders, legal services, medical, counseling, safety planning, and more. This session will allow the audience to inquire about innovative practices within the Family Justice Center model.
