Retrieved: Deleted SMS Messages

19 Feb 2006

Where do you think the SMS messages you delete go to? SMS heaven? Wrong. They’re still there, you just can’t see them. There’s even a technology to retrieve all deleted content and it’s called SIMCon. Here’s what it does:

SIMCon is a program that allows the user to securely image all files on a GSM SIM card to a computer file with a standard smart card reader. The user can subsequently analyze the contents of the card including stored numbers and text messages.

Some of SIMCon’s features:

  • Read all available files on a SIM card and store in an archive file
  • Analyze and interpret content of files including text messages and stored numbers
  • Recover deleted text messages stored on the card but not readable on phones
  • Manage PIN and PUK codes
  • Print report that can be used as evidence based on user selection of items
  • Secure file archive using hashing
  • Export items to files that can be imported in popular spreadsheet programs
  • Supports international charsets
