New Diagnostic Forensic Protocol for Damaged Secure Digital Memory Cards

Over the past twenty years, Secure Digital memory cards have become most popular digital storage media. Therefore, forensic experts need to develop techniques enable recovery of data, especially from severely damaged by accidents, air crashes, terrorist attacks or deliberate attempts criminals destroy evidence. The paper discusses non-invasive and invasive diagnostics available experts, with descriptions necessary equipment, including binocular microscopes, X-Ray scanning acoustic chemical benches, and, for first time, infrared cameras. All these can be used methodically determine best treatment in order repair media extract data them. main contributions include development an innovative systematic protocol on cards, which involves a decision-making diagram. Finally, concrete case study is presented using new decision diagram-based panel diagnose card damage.
