Performing Cloud Storage Forensic Acquisition
Overview
Cloud storage forensic acquisition involves collecting digital evidence from services like Google Drive, OneDrive, Dropbox, and Box through both API-based remote acquisition and local endpoint artifact analysis. Modern investigations must address the challenge that cloud-synced files may exist in multiple states: locally synchronized, cloud-only (on-demand), cached, and deleted. Endpoint devices that have synchronized with cloud storage contain a wealth of metadata about locally synced files, files present only in the cloud, and even deleted items recoverable from cache folders. API-based acquisition using service-specific APIs provides direct access to remote data with valid credentials and proper legal authorization.
When to Use
When conducting security assessments that involve performing cloud storage forensic acquisition
When following incident response procedures for related security events
When performing scheduled security testing or auditing activities
When validating security controls through hands-on testing
Prerequisites
Legal authorization (warrant, consent, or corporate policy) for cloud data access
Valid user credentials or administrative access tokens
Magnet AXIOM Cloud, Cellebrite Cloud Analyzer, or equivalent tool
KAPE with cloud storage target files
Python 3.8+ with google-api-python-client, msal, dropbox SDK
Network connectivity for API-based acquisition
