Cybrary is looking for a passionate, experienced instructor to create a course on Mobile Forensics. This course is for someone familiar with cybersecurity who wants to deepen their knowledge in digital forensics. 

 

Short Description:

The objective of this course is to help learners to understand how to look for the following data on Android devices: SMS, MMS, emails, call logs, contacts, photos, calendars, notes, browser history, GPS locations, passwords, data stored on SD cards, etc. As well as understanding the android file systems, directory structures, and how and where the data is stored for both Android and IOS devices.
