Lantern Lite Imager
I’m aways happy to give credit where credit is due. This week I had a dilemma. At work we have a license for Cellebrite Physical Analyzer (excellent software) but we needed to have the ability to obtain physical images of several iOS devices at several locations at once. We needed to act quickly and as […]

Leaving on a Jet Plane
Please pardon the ‘personal’ post. There’s nothing technical here so feel free to pass if you’re not interested. No, I’m not off to another conference. This time we’re playing for keeps.
