Send us a textA baby camel, a high-speed chase, and a heartfelt tribute set the stage for a season opener that is equal parts human and hard-nosed.We pause to honor Mark Baker, mentor, officer, and friend.This episode spotlights a free Belkasoft AI course along with the much-anticipated release of Rabbit Hole v3, designed to tackle complex data structures.From there, it is all about blogs, and there are plenty of them. Mattia explores extraction nuances, showing how AFU versus BFU states and encryption classes still determine what you can recover from iOS and Android. Hexordia provides important guidance on first responder missteps, emphasizing how early handling and precise thinking safeguard the integrity of a case.We also showcase open-source and budget-friendly tools such as Autopsy and IPED, which expand analysis capacity without breaking the bank. A hands-on demo of Gallery Builder illustrates how to create courtroom-ready visuals, paired with a reminder that “vibe coding” with LLMs is no substitute for validated forensic standards.Finally, we close with the latest LEAPP and LAVA updates, which continue to push practical workflows forward for the field.Notes:BelkaGPT: Effective Artificial Intelligence in DFIRhttps://belkasoft.com/belkagpt-trainingTraining First Responders in Digital Evidence Handling: How To Protect Your Department from Case-Destroying Mistakeshttps://www.hexordia.com/blog/training-first-responders-in-digital-evidence-handlingThe Packd Bytehttps://www.thepackdbyte.org/Two New Blogs from Mattia http://blog.digital-forensics.it/2025/09/exploring-data-extraction-from-android.htmlhttps://blog.digital-forensics.it/2025/09/exploring-data-extraction-from-ios.htmlSWGDEhttps://www.swgde.org/documents/published-complete-listing/16-f-002-considerations-for-required-minimization-of-digital-evidence-seizure/Gallery Builderhttps://github.com/charpy4n6/GalleryBuilder
