Samsung tracking tag application forensics in criminal investigations

Samsung tracking tags—such as the SmartTag and SmartTag+—are Bluetooth-enabled devices that can be pivotal in criminal investigations. Forensic analysis of these tags involves extracting location data, timestamps, user interactions, and network connectivity logs. Investigators can leverage this information to trace movements, establish timelines, and even link suspects to crime scenes. When properly preserved and analyzed, these devices become powerful digital witnesses, offering valuable insights into criminal activities in real-time or retrospectively. As IoT devices continue to expand, digital forensics must evolve to incorporate smart tracking technologies like Samsung tags for accurate and lawful evidence collection.
