Hi @jtf321,

Welcome to community! Can you elaborate on the issue that you’re experiencing?

Having reviewed my own phone in Cellebrite I wanted to bring this to your attention. The iOS database (SQLite) is extracted/backedup by Cellebrite and then reviewable as plain text. I was under the impression that this was a secure browser (both in personal browsing security and in external website tracking) and to find all the URL sites I visited as plain text in the extraction was not encouraging. I suggest you disable the app backup or work to encrypt this data in the backup.

Thanks for reporting!
What is the name of the database that is backed up?
