Ramdisk Analysis Tool

The tool analyzes boot ramdisk configurations on iOS devices by ingesting device metadata and ramdisk signatures to assess integrity and configuration compliance. It does not modify devices or boot paths. It is intended for security teams, developers, and IT admins who perform repeatable verification during security reviews, OS updates, fleet audits, or incident response. Example inputs include device_model (e.g., iPhone13,1), ios_version (e.g., 15.5), ramdisk_hash (SHA-256 hex), ramdisk_signature (base64), and boot_config (structured data).

Core logic combines cryptographic checks with domain knowledge of iOS ramdisk structures. Required features include: 1) hash verification against a trusted baseline; 2) signature validation against a root store; 3) version compatibility checks for iOS 15; 4) anomaly flagging. Advanced features include baseline comparisons, report export, API access for automation, and alerting hooks. The tool ingests inputs described above and outputs a risk_profile, flags, and recommended actions.

Outputs include risk_score, flags, and recommended_actions; it supports integration with SIEMs and ticketing systems and can export to JSON/CSV. Error handling covers missing inputs, invalid string formats, and external data unavailability by returning explicit errors or conservative risk scores. In enterprise contexts, it accelerates security reviews, reduces manual effort, and improves auditability of ramdisk-related integrity checks.
