When all seems lost.......
Unlike PCs, where "deleted" data can still easily be accessed, information wiped from a mobile phone's internal memory can be almost impossible for the police to recover, according to Tyler Moore, a researcher at the University of Cambridge Computer Laboratory.
When a user tries to delete data on a PC, the information is not actually removed. Instead, the pointers to the data are deleted, but investigators can still recover it. While mobile phone data is typically treated in the same way, the proprietary nature of the mobile phone market means that information is stored and handled in non-standard ways.
Here at www.mobile-forensics.co.uk we have overcome the usuall limitations using both specialist hardware and forensic software that enables us to recover data thought to be completely deleted or lost
from mobile phone or simcard memory
Consumers fail to realise how much sensitive information they carry in their mobile phones, according to a university study.
Professor Steve Furnell from Plymouth University said that focus groups carried out on the campus showed a worrying trend of users not protecting their data on mobile devices because they did not see any threat.

Responses from the study included phrases such as: 'I'm not sure that anybody would want to steal my information. I don't perceive myself to be that important.'
"But we went through the discussion and asked what would you do if this fell into other people's hands? Would you really want someone else having access to your contact list? Do you store passwords for services on your device?" said Professor Furnell.
"And we found that the answers were 'Yes I do' and 'No I wouldn't want other people having this' and so their categorisation of what they considered to be sensitive data, and whether their device actually held it, had evolved."
"You can have stronger protection even now on many types of mobile devices, for example Windows Mobile which will allow you to go beyond the simple four-digit key and use a strong alphanumeric password," he said.
