Abstract

Most of the cybercrime are originated from abuse of mobile phones. If there is a possibility to identify the persons who abuse mobile phones, then the task of Cybercrime, Information forensic and Defense department is getting easier. Here the authors proposed a technique to identify the International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI) number, time stamp andgeographical location of the smartphone/mobile. Whenever the mobile camera is used the identity information such as IMEI number, timestamp and geolocation are embedded in the captured image automatically. For that, a mobile application was developed and deployed as a mobile service. By decoding the image, the embedded identity information of that mobile phone is revealed. Using this information it is easy to identify the person/s.
