Digital forensics is like solving a mystery.

Dakota State University digital forensics expert Dr. Ashley Podhradsky will help unravel cell phone mysteries on this Saturday’s CBS Dream Team show “Mission Unstoppable” episode. 

On the show, Podhradsky accepts a challenge from correspondent Fig O’Reilly to find deleted images on a cell phone. Throughout the process, Podhradsky explains concepts such as logical and physical extractions, and location meta data. She also offers recommendations on secure passwords, and how to understand what and when information is shared on a phone.

  The show, intended for viewers from 10-15 years old, celebrates and empowers women and girls to change their world through science, technology, engineering, and math.  

The show is set to air at 10:00 a.m. ET (or 9:00 Central Time) on CBS, but viewers should check local listings for exact times in their market area.
