Wearable Forensics: Digital Evidence for Investigations
Wearable technology, such as fitness trackers and smartwatches, generates valuable digital evidence by recording detailed activity data from users. This evidence includes metrics like steps, distance, and stair flights, which can be crucial for forensic investigations. For instance, data from Apple Watches is forwarded to connected iPhones, making these smartphones key repositories for recovering wearable technology evidence. Carney Forensics assists legal professionals in extracting and analyzing this type of digital evidence. This topic was discussed at the Robins Kaplan LLP 2019 Trial Advocacy Seminar, where Carney Forensics spoke about 'Great Scott! Wearable Technology Exists.'
