Cellebrite Ufed 7.68 Free
This release focuses heavily on expanding support for modern security protocols found in the latest Android and iOS devices, as well as introducing specialized tools for emerging technologies like cryptocurrency investigations and chat app decoding.
- WhatsApp (including business and database decryption)
- Signal
- Telegram
- WeChat
- Viber
It also began parsing newer artifact types, such as location history from fitness apps and in-app purchase receipts.
- Telegram Secret Chats:
Building on previous capabilities, 7.68 improves the parsing of "Secret Chats" within Telegram. While these chats are designed to self-destruct, UFED 7.68 can now recover and parse residual artifacts and database structures from filesystem extractions, potentially recovering metadata and message fragments.
- WhatsApp & WhatsApp Business:
Enhanced decoding for the latest versions of WhatsApp on both Android and iOS. This includes better support for recovering "disappearing messages" if they are cached within the device's filesystem or unallocated space during a physical extraction.
- Snapchat "My Eyes Only":
Updated decryption logic allows investigators to access the protected "My Eyes Only" section of Snapchat on specific Android devices, provided the extraction method captures the necessary encryption keys.
iOS 17.4 Advanced Logical Fix:
This version explicitly resolves a known issue regarding advanced logical extractions for iOS 17.4 , ensuring stable data retrieval from the latest iPhones. 🛠️ Tools of the Trade Cellebrite Ufed 7.68
