  • Abstract
    Wireless digital security forensics has been currently acknowledged as a major challenge for both technical and legal organizations; the growth of wireless networks and access devices have created more security vulnerabilities and resulted in more incidents and threats to both organizations and consumers. While there are current methodologies, techniques and tools which are utilized or being developed in this area, the challenge remains to maintain and keep up with the fast paste of the wireless growing technologies. In this paper we discuss some of the current challenges and highlight some approaches and techniques which can be used during the course of forensics investigation of wireless systems and devices.
