In this chapter, we discussed several techniques that are used for physically imaging internal memory or SD cards, and some of the common problems associated with them:

Additionally, each imaging technique can be used to either save the image on the device (typically on the SD card), or used with netcat to write the file to the examiner's computer:

Some tools that can be used for RAM imaging were also introduced:

Finally, we briefly discussed chip-off and JTAG techniques at an introductory level.
In the next chapter, we will demonstrate the recovery of deleted data from physical images, like the ones created in this chapter.
