Explanation

This statement is true and represents the standard definition of mobile phone forensics. Mobile phone forensics is a branch of digital forensics focused on recovering and examining digital evidence from mobile devices - including smartphones, tablets, and feature phones - using forensically sound methods. 'Forensically sound' means the process preserves data integrity, maintains a documented chain of custody, and does not alter the original evidence. This discipline covers extracting call logs, SMS/MMS, emails, photos, GPS data, app data, and deleted files in a manner admissible in court.
