Android physical dumps and backups parsing with AXIOM


The AXIOM program, developed by the Magnet Forensics company, is a popular tool that is used both for computer forensics and for mobile forensics. It has three components:

  • Magnet Acquire is a tool designed for data acquiring from hard disks, mobile devices, and other media (this tool was described in Chapter 2, Android Devices Acquisition)
  • AXIOM Process is a tool designed for analysis of devices’ images, files, and folders
