Network forensics is a branch of digital forensics, which applies to network security. It is used to relate monitoring and analysis of the computer network traffic, that helps us in collecting information and digital evidence, for the protection of network that can use as firewall and IDS. Firewalls and IDS can't always prevent and find out the unauthorized access within a network. This pa...

Multimedia forensics can be defined as the science that tries, by only analysing a particular digital asset, to give an assessment on such a content and to extract information that can be useful to address and support an investigation linked to the scene represented in that specific digital document. The basic idea behind multimedia forensics relies on the observation that both the acquisition ...

Digital camcorders commonly have an in-built capability to export entire video files or a single image to storage media such as a digital versatile disc (DVD). In the event that a DVD is not properly finalised, its contents might not be easily readable. It is generally accepted that recovering video evidence from an unfinalised DVD in a forensically sound manner is an expensive and a challengin...

Internet use, intelligent communication tools, and social media have all become an integral part of our daily life as a result of rapid developments in information technology. However, this widespread use increases crimes committed in the digital environment. Therefore, digital forensics, dealing with various crimes committed in digital environment, has become an important research topic. It is...

Today’s cloud computing architectures often lack support for computer forensic investigations. Besides this, the existing digital forensics tools cannot cope with the dynamic nature of the cloud. This paper explores the challenges of digital forensics in the cloud, possible attacks on cloud-evidence, and mitigation strategies against those challenges. Digital Forensics in the Cloud To identify ...

Reverse Engineering is the traditional bread-and-butter of digital forensics research. Companies like Microsoft and Apple deliver computational artifacts (operating systems, applications and phones) to the commercial market. These artifacts are bought and used by billions. Some have evil intent, and (if society is lucky), the computers end up in the hands of law enforcement. Unfortunately the o...

Nowadays we all are surrounded by big data. The term ‘Big Data’ itself indicates huge volume, high velocity, variety and veracity i.e. uncertainty of data which gave rise to new difficulties and challenges. Hadoop is a framework which can be used for tremendous data storage and faster processing. It is freely available, easy to use and implement. Big data forensic is one of the challenges of bi...

Natural Image Statistics for Digital Image Forensics

The field of forensics is multidisciplinary by nature, founded on the disciplines of criminology and information technology. However, most course work leading to a foundation in the field are offered within the Chemistry and Biology disciplines in addition to Computer Science. Regardless of the framework in which the courses are offered, the coursework itself must address social, legal, and eth...
