Very good course! Incredibly good teacher and I think that distance learning works at least as well as in the classroom! Thanks again James! Great balance between technical depth and hands-on labs. I liked that we didn’t just rely on tools, but looked under the hood and made sense of the data. It’s definitely helped me write clearer reports and explain findings to investigators.
Best course I have ever taken. I really enjoyed the week, learned a ton, and everything was clear and easy to keep up with. The labs felt real and made sense, even without loads of experience. The instructor explained things so clearly and made it all feel manageable. I would absolutely recommend it to anyone working with mobile forensics.

After decades of solving cases, testifying in court, and training forensic teams around the world, James Eichbaum founded Elusive Data in early 2024.
Well known in the community from his former roles as an investigator, Global Trainer Manager, and instructor for some of the leading names in the industry, James started the company with a clear idea: training should be more hands-on, immersive, and reflect the real challenges of daily investigations. It should also be more accessible, giving investigators faster access to the knowledge they need to act quickly, make sense of complex data, and solve cases without delay.
Today, Elusive Data helps professionals around the world learn through immersive, hands-on training. Courses include interactive labs, CTF challenges, and practical exercises built around real case data. Training is available on-demand, live online, and on-site.

Thank you for a great course! I finally get how to work with unsupported apps. That clicked during this course. I’ve done a few trainings before, but this one stood out because it was actually useful right away. The instructor explained how app data is stored in a way that made sense, and I really appreciated all the real examples. I’ve already used a few techniques in a current case.
