Which digital assets on a device are important?

The most commonplace devices are desktop computer, laptop computer, tablet, and mobile phone.

If you are unable to login to the decedent's account on the device you are faced with the following choices:

  • reset the password, using specialized software for that particular operating system if required
  • if the device is a desktop, remove the internal disk drive and connect it to a system for which you do have access
  • connect the target device to another device which allows you to access the files on the target device
  • take the system to a data forensics specialist
