## Description

This project is a command-line forensic toolkit designed for the investigation and security auditing of mobile devices. It provides a framework for collecting system logs, application data, and forensic artifacts to identify potential security breaches, unauthorized access, or evidence of malicious activity.

The utility employs a modular extraction architecture that parses diverse file formats and system logs into a standardized, normalized data structure. By utilizing this unified format, the tool performs both heuristic analysis of system metadata and pattern matching against structured threat intelligence databases to detect indicators of compromise and targeted spyware infections.

The software functions as an automated forensic pipeline, orchestrating the sequential collection, processing, and scanning of device data. It is intended for use in incident response and security auditing workflows where verifying the integrity of mobile operating systems against known threat patterns is required.
