have begun to incorporate forensics to analyze their mobile devices and respond
to any incidents of malicious activity in order to protect their sensitive data. Current
forensic tools, however, can only look a static image of the device being examined,
making it difficult for a forensic analyst to produce conclusive results regarding the
integrity of any sensitive data on the device. This research thesis expands on the
use of forensics to secure data by implementing an agent on a mobile device that can
continually collect information regarding the state of the device. This information is
then sent to a separate server in the form of log files to be analyzed using a specialized
tool. The analysis tool is able to look at the data collected from the device over time
and perform specific calculations, according to the user's specifications, highlighting
any correlations or anomalies among the data which might be considered suspicious
to a forensic analyst. The contribution of this paper is both an in-depth explanation
on the implementation of an iOS application to be used to improve the mobile forensics
process as well as a proof-of-concept experiment showing how evidence collected
over time can be used to improve the accuracy of a forensic analysis.
This project explores how modern mobile technology can be used to provide support for domestic violence victims. The goal of the project is to create a proof-of-concept iOS mobile application that maintains a discreet safety front and provides domestic violence victims with resources and safety planning. The design and implementation are disguised as a hair salon app to maintain a low profile on the user’s phone. The HairHelp app features quick exit navigation, a secure database to store a user’s private and personal documents in case of emergency, and a checklist of safety planning measures. The steps taken in this project serve as the foundation for a larger project in the long term.
This project seeks to motivate runners by creating an application that selectively plays music based on smartwatch metrics. This is done by analyzing metrics collected through a person’s smartwatch such as heart rate or running power and then selecting the music that best fits their workout’s intensity. This way, as the workout becomes harder for the user, increasingly motivating music is played.
