🆕Low-Level Extraction of the HomePod mini🆕

iOS Forensic Toolkit 10.12 extracts the full file system image and the decrypted keychain from yet another IoT device: Apple HomePod mini.

😀This is the first file system extraction of the device, the method uses the usbliter8 bootloader exploit and a custom adapter. This guide covers the hardware, the extraction and analysis steps.

Know your HomePod

Apple has shipped three HomePod models, each based on a different chip. Apple’s specifications do not list the processor; use the model identifier page and match it to the chip below:

🤩 HomePod (1st generation): A8.

🤩 HomePod mini: S5.

🤩 HomePod (2nd generation): S7.

🗣Let’s talk about why a forensic specialist needs to analyze a smart speaker and what will be required for that.
