PRECEPT: a framework for ethical digital forensics investigations

A Control Framework for Digital Forensics

Towards a new approximate matching function for digital forensics investigations

The use of automated procedures to handle the massive volume of data available nowadays is required, especially in digital forensic investigations in which time is a scarce resource. The Known File Filtering method is one of the solutions, separating relevant from irrelevant information. Due to limitations on cryptographic hash functions (inability to detect similar data), approximate matching ...

A Framework for Digital Forensics and Investigations: The Goal-Driven Approach

Digital forensics investigations are an important task for collecting evidence based on the artifacts left in computer systems for computer related crimes. The requirements of such investigations are often a neglected aspect in most of the existing models of digital investigations. Therefore, a formal and systematic approach is needed to provide a framework for modeling and reasoning about the ...

Engineering Adaptive Digital Investigations using Forensics Requirements

A digital forensic investigation aims to collect and analyse the evidence necessary to demonstrate a potential hypothesis of a digital crime. Despite the availability of several digital forensics tools, investigators still approach each crime case from scratch, postulating potential hypotheses and analysing large volumes of data. This paper proposes to explicitly model forensic requirements in ...

Framework for Next Generation Digital Forensics Models

Digital Forensics is a fairly new discipline, which due to the heavy overlap with the computer science and information technology is now categorized within the computer science field. On the other hand, the legal side of digital forensics is mainly coming from the traditional forensics procedures and the law. Therefore, the current models are modeling the process of digital investigation to be ...
