Computer Forensics – Final Project

Abstract

Digital forensics is a sub-part of forensic science which entails the recovery and the investigation of sources of evidences found in digital devices. Thus digital forensics involves preservation, identification, extraction, and storage of digital evidences which can be referred to in a court of law (Watson and Dehghatanha, 2016). It is a technique of gathering substantial evidences from digital sources such as the computer, mobile phones, servers, networkers and other relevant digital platforms.

Digital forensics entails crucial steps. This step includes; identification, this is always the starting point in digital forensic investigation. This involves the evaluation of the evidences available, the most likely places where the evidence is stored, and also the format in which the evidence is stored in the given specific device (Guru99, n.d.). This step is followed by the preservation process. This is where the investigation team makes sure that they have secured the data and stored it in a safe location. This process involves making sure that no individuals are in contact with the given device so as to ensure that the digital evidence is not interfered with (Zubair et al., 2017).

After the preservation of the data, an analysis process is carried out. Here, the investigation team analysis the available data and come up with a conclusion which is based on the available evidence. This stage usually takes many iteration of close examination so as to support a given crime theory (Zubair et al., 2017). The forth step involves documentation; here the investigation team comes up with the record of all the available data. This process is essential since it helps in the instances where the case is reviewed in future. The documentation involves stored means such as photographs, sketches, as well as crime-scene mapping. Finally, the last step is presentation; this involves making summaries and coming up with conclusions to the given case. The reports are developed employing the abstracted terminologies referencing the given specific details.

In conclusion, digital forensic is a crucial concept in the investigation of modern criminal activities. It can be employed in numerous cases such as; fraud cases, intellectual property incidences, employment disputes among many others.
