With the widespread use of Android devices, research on their security has attracted increasing attention. However, at present, digital forensics for investigating attacks, such as social engineering attacks and phishing that target Android users, remains a challenging and time-consuming task. To help discover the existence of an attack and conduct effective investigations, we propose a top-down digital forensic tool for Android applications to reconstruct attack scenarios by considering both high-level user interface (UI) elements and low-level system events. Thus, we can explain the nature of an attack from a visual and global perspective. The tested evaluation results show that our tool can successfully reconstruct scenarios on Android devices for phishing attacks.
