Approaching iOS Extractions: Choosing the Right Acquisition Method
The extraction method or methods available for a particular iOS device depend on the device’s hardware platform and the installed version of iOS. While logical acquisition is available for all iOS and iPadOS devices, more advanced extraction methods are available for older platforms and versions of iOS. But what if more than one way to extract the data is available for a given device? In this guide, we’ll discuss the applicable acquisition methods as well as the order in which they should be used.

checkm8 for iOS 16.2 and Windows-based iOS Low-Level Extraction
Just before the turn of the year, we’ve made an important update to Elcomsoft iOS Forensic Toolkit, a low-level iOS file system extraction and keychain decryption tool. The update brings checkm8 support to iOS, iPadOS and tvOS 16.2 devices, and enables agent-based low-level extraction of iOS 15.5. We’ve also fixed what’s been long broken: the ability to sideload the extraction agent from Windows PCs, yet the two updates are delivered in different branches. Sounds confusing?

Apple Releases iOS 12.5.7, iOS 15.7.3. What About Low-Level Extraction?
Apple is known for a very long time they support their devices. On January 23, 2023, alongside with iOS 16.3 the company rolled out security patches to older devices, releasing iOS 12.5.7, iOS 15.7.3 and iPadOS 15.7.3. iOS 12 was the last major version of iOS supported on Apple A7, A8, and A8X devices, which includes the iPhone 5s and iPhone 6 and 6 Plus generations along with several iPad models. We tested low-level extraction with these security-patched builds, and made several discoveries.
