![]() It's a fairly long post so you might want to take that potty break now before we begin ) For this post, we'll be focusing on using an Android emulator to retrieve in-game chat artefacts and then create a script to parse them ( "wwf-chat-parser.py"). "Words With Friends" (WWF) is a popular scrabble type game with chat functionality. So now we just need a target app to investigate. ![]() Hopefully, this post will help encourage further forensic research/scripts for Android based apps. As an added bonus, the emulator comes as part of the FREE Android Software Development Kit (SDK). By using an emulator, we don't need to "root" an Android device in order to access artefacts from the protected data storage area (eg "/data/data/"). The recent NIST Mobile Forensics Webcast and SANS FOR585 poster got monkey thinking about using the Android emulator for application artefact research.
