What is a UFDR file? A UFDR file is a report created by Cellebrite Physical Analyzer, a digital forensics application. It contains a summary of data extracted from a smartphone or other device(s). Digital forensics investigators create UFDR files and share them with other law enforcement professionals as part of criminal investigations and prosecutions. UFDR files can be opened with Cellebrite Reader.

More Information Cellebrite's mobile forensics software allows investigators to extract data, including messages, pictures, and videos, from smartphones, drones, SD cards, and other devices. Investigators can then use Cellebrite Physical Analyzer to analyze that data and create summaries of their analyses. Summaries can be saved in several formats, including .PDF , .HTML , and UFDR. Other law enforcement professionals can open UFDR files and view the reports they contain in Cellebrite Reader, a pared-down version of Cellebrite Physical Analyzer. These users can then search through the report, tag and export files of interest, and create sub-reports.
