English Abstract

Smartphone usage increased sharply; with a mature user interface and user experience those devices are built to need no special technical skills in order to use them.

Consequently, most people started to use web browsers using their Smartphone devices instead of using their desktops in a daily manner.

This research aims to discover new incriminating artifacts and leftovers from web browsers on a mobile file system that even the probably best commercial toolkits in the market will fail to identify automatically.

To do that, the research has examined the most common web applications, namely Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Gmail, Amazon, and Booking.com, using the Smartphone’s Application for Google Chrome web browser in two different Android mobiles.

This research has performed 34 test cases on each mobile.

The data collected includes the visited locations, searched items, any full web cache to mention a few.

Hence, such data contains all artifacts that will be utilized in the investigation processes as evidences to condemn or acquitted the accused person even if the crime is not a digital one.
