Specifying Digital Forensics: A Forensics Policy Approach

In this paper we present an approach to digital forensics specification based on forensic policy definition. Our methodology borrows from computer security policy specification, which has accumulated a significant body of research over the past 30 years. We first define the process of specifying forensics properties through a forensics policy and then present an example application of the proce...

Digital Forensics to Intelligent Forensics

In this paper we posit that current investigative techniques—particularly as deployed by law enforcement, are becoming unsuitable for most types of crime investigation. The growth in cybercrime and the complexities of the types of the cybercrime coupled with the limitations in time and resources, both computational and human, in addressing cybercrime put an increasing strain on the ability of d...

Digital Profiling: A Computer Forensics Approach

Nowadays investigations have become more difficult than in the past. It is already clear that, in modern crime scene, a vast amount of evidence are in the electronic or digital form and that the computer system or network have a paramount role in researching of indicators and evidence. The correct analysis of log file and the data saved in the system memory, in this new scenario, are crucial fo...

Digital Forensics

igital forensics investigators are experiencing an increase in both the number and complexity of cases that require their attention. The number of cases is rising for a variety of reasons, including better awareness of the capabilities of digital forensics techniques at all levels of law enforcement and in the private sector. The complexity of cases is growing because forensic targets with hund...
