About the project

A collection of mobile forensics utilities that gather and analyze traces of compromise on Android and iOS devices, matching them against public indicators of compromise (IOCs). Built by Amnesty International Security Lab for technologists and investigators, not for end-user self-assessment.

Useful for

Check an iPhone backup for traces of known spyware campaigns using public IOCs
Collect forensic artifacts from an Android device over adb for later analysis
Download the latest indicators of compromise with download-iocs before scanning

Star trust

Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.

These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
