This advanced, 3-day course teaches professionals how to recover, decode, and interpret SQLite data from mobile apps and other digital sources. You’ll learn to identify and analyze key forensic artifacts such as deleted records, WAL/SHM files, and page-level structures — even when standard tools fail.
Training is updated for 2025 and built around real cases, interactive CTF challenges, and unsupported apps. You'll use custom tools and datasets to develop deep forensic insight and practical recovery techniques.
This course is for forensic examiners, investigators, incident responders, and analysts who:
This course is designed for digital forensic professionals who need to go beyond what standard tools provide and interpret SQLite data with confidence and precision. Whether you're in law enforcement, incident response, or forensic consulting, this course gives you deep, hands-on skills with immediate impact.
It’s especially valuable if you:
The course is designed for investigators — not developers. All techniques are visual, hands-on, and tool-agnostic.
This course is designed to build practical expertise, not just deliver content. You'll work hands-on with real data, solve realistic forensic challenges, and develop deep understanding of how SQLite works in actual investigations.
Every part of the course — including the OnDemand version — is immersive and practical. You’ll gain techniques you can apply directly in your current and future cases.
The course is taught by James Eichbaum — a seasoned digital forensics instructor and practitioner with deep expertise in mobile and database analysis. Over the past 15+ years, James has trained thousands of professionals in over 30 countries, with a consistent focus on practical skills and investigative accuracy.
He has led advanced forensic training programs for law enforcement, defense, and private sector teams worldwide, including national police agencies and forensic labs. With a background as both an instructor and an investigator, James brings a dual perspective that makes complex topics understandable and directly relevant to real-world casework.
In this full-length certified course, James guides you step-by-step through the forensic internals of SQLite — from page structures and WAL files to manual recovery methods — using structured labs, real app data, and realistic CTF-style challenges.

This is a deep, technical training designed for professionals who regularly work with mobile extractions, forensic tools, and complex databases. Over three packed days — or via our self-paced format — you’ll learn how to read, interpret, and recover data directly from raw SQLite structures with precision and clarity.
The course includes extensive hands-on practice and walks you through live examples of deleted records, freelist page recovery, overflow handling, WAL/SHM interpretation, and much more. You'll not only understand the theory, but you'll also apply it in guided labs and real-world CTF-style scenarios built specifically for forensic use.
Whether you're analyzing encrypted apps, validating tool output, or supporting case work in law enforcement or private sector investigations — this course builds the confidence and skill set needed to handle SQLite-based data in depth.
The full course includes:
Live: Delivered over 3 full days with instructor-led sessions, labs, and interactive case studies.
온디맨드: Same content, but self-paced. You get 90 days access to all videos, labs, and datasets.
Yes — all content reflects the latest SQLite structures, current forensic tools, and challenges drawn from modern mobile apps and databases.
Yes. We provide group pricing and custom delivery for teams of 5 or more, including onboarding and support for labs and access management.
No prior database expertise is required. The course starts from the ground up, guiding you through SQLite internals using visual walkthroughs, labs, and practical exercises — all with forensic application in mind.
Every section includes hands-on exercises: parsing deleted records, rebuilding overflow chains, exploring WAL/SHM files, and solving scenario-based challenges based on real-world datasets.
The course is taught by James Eichbaum, a veteran digital forensics instructor with over 15 years of experience and global recognition in mobile and database forensics. He has trained law enforcement, DFIR consultants, and forensic examiners in over 30 countries.
Perfect — this course complements those tools. You’ll learn how to validate their output, investigate unsupported apps, and recover records that often go unnoticed by automated parsing.
Yes. You’ll receive a verifiable certificate with unique ID and instructor signature. It qualifies for 24 CPE 크레딧 and meets documentation needs for legal, audit, or regulatory review.
Yes. Live participants can ask questions in-session. On-Demand participants get instructor email support and access to a curated resource library throughout their access period.
Yes. The course is built around real app data and typical case scenarios — not theory or synthetic examples. Everything you learn is applicable to your current and future cases.
Yes. You'll work through realistic CTF-style investigations designed to reinforce technical concepts with real-world data. These challenges are based on actual mobile app behavior and common investigation scenarios.
Yes — you’ll receive access to the Elusive Data SQLite Visualizer, a custom-built forensic tool for visual inspection of database structures like freelist pages, B-Trees, WAL records, and overflow chains.
Yes. All live sessions are recorded, and participants receive on-demand access to rewatch the material for up to 90 days — including walkthroughs and lab demos.
This is a deep dive — but it’s built to be accessible. You’ll go into low-level SQLite internals (WAL, B-Tree, VarInts, freelist) but everything is broken down visually and reinforced with labs and casework examples.
The labs are based on real-world app databases including messaging apps, location platforms, and social media. These are curated to simulate live case conditions, with edge cases and recoverable deleted records.
Yes. Many experienced examiners, tool developers, and agency trainers take this course to sharpen their knowledge of SQLite internals. While beginner-friendly, the material scales well for seasoned professionals looking to go deeper.
Absolutely. You'll learn to manually parse WAL and SHM files to identify hidden or deleted data not found in the main DB — and you'll see how rollback works across multiple scenarios.
Yes. The course is tool-agnostic and focuses on methods that work regardless of what forensic platform you use. You’ll learn to validate tool output and go deeper when tools don’t support a specific app or artifact.
You should have some experience in digital forensics, mobile analysis, or DFIR — but you don’t need to know how to code or have prior database training. This course teaches what you need, as you go.
Yes. SQLite is used in desktop apps, IoT devices, browsers, and cloud sync platforms. The skills you learn here apply anywhere SQLite appears, including non-mobile cases.
ED SQLite Visualizer는 포렌식 전문가가 교육 중이나 실제 조사에서 SQLite 데이터와 상호 작용하는 방식을 개선하기 위해 개발되었습니다. 이 포렌식 제품군은 이 과정에서 배울 기술을 보완하고 고급 데이터베이스 분석의 접근성과 효율성을 높이기 위해 특별히 설계되었습니다.
이 제품군은 디코딩, 시각화, 해석을 하나의 인터페이스에 통합합니다. WAL 파일, 바린트, 오버플로 페이지, 구조화된 레코드로 작업하는 프로세스를 간소화하여 복잡한 모바일 앱 데이터에 대한 보다 명확한 인사이트를 얻을 수 있도록 도와줍니다.
실습과 실제 시나리오에서 교육 과정 내내 이 도구를 사용하게 되며, 이후에도 계속 보관할 수 있습니다. 앱 데이터를 조사하거나, 삭제된 레코드를 복구하거나, 결과를 정밀하게 검증할 때 신뢰할 수 있는 리소스입니다.
ED SQLite 비주얼라이저는 효과적인 교육은 실용적인 기술과 이를 바로 적용할 수 있는 도구를 제공해야 한다는 믿음을 반영합니다.
SQLite는 2025년에도 여전히 모바일 앱 스토리지의 중추로 채팅 기록과 위치 로그부터 앱 설정과 캐시된 미디어에 이르기까지 모든 것을 뒷받침할 것입니다. 포렌식 도구는 기본적인 추출은 잘 처리하지만, 데이터베이스 내부에 저장된 쓰기 전 로그, 오버플로 체인 또는 각 앱에 고유한 사용자 정의 스키마 등 더 깊은 곳에 저장된 내용을 밝혀내는 데는 역부족인 경우가 많습니다.
모바일 소프트웨어가 빠르게 발전함에 따라 분석가들은 데이터가 부분적으로만 디코딩되거나 아예 누락되는 상황에 점점 더 많이 직면하고 있습니다. 신뢰할 수 있는 모바일 분석을 위해서는 SQLite의 내부 작동을 이해하는 것이 필수적입니다.
이 마이크로 강좌는 이러한 현실을 염두에 두고 만들어졌습니다. 구조적 수준에서 SQLite를 분석하고, 데이터를 수동으로 복구하고, 레코드가 어떻게 구성되어 있는지 해석하고, 도구만으로는 설명할 수 없는 패턴이나 이상 징후를 발견하는 방법을 배우게 됩니다. 복잡하거나 시간이 촉박한 상황에서 더 효과적으로 제어할 수 있는 실용적인 전문 지식을 습득할 수 있습니다.
