Abstract

This paper deals with the forensic examination of Android smartphones. The structure of the Android system was analyzed and a forensic guide was created. As an example this guide was used to examine a HTC Desire. The conclusion of this paper is the fact that all data stored on the smartphone can be examined. The main problem is that some of the used procedures lack forensic requirements.
