IoT IN DATA FORENSICS
Introduction
Internet of Things have been creating a positive impact on the technology of digital
forensics. IoT architecture has a major role to play in the enhancing the functioning process
of digital forensics. This report discusses about the different research questions and provides
a literature review as well. Data analysis methodology is stated as well.
Research Question
Research Question 1: What are the different IOT infrastructure that is in use for performing
digital forensics?
Research Question 2: What are the impacts of IOT in digital forensics?
Research Question 2: What are the IOT Forensics challenges that are faced?
Literature Review
Architecture
As per Rughani and Parag , the infrastructure of IOT in digital forensics is subdivided
in 3 sections. The sections are namely Devices level forensics, Network Forensics and Cloud
forensics. In the Cloud Forensics, IoT application/ Services are present. In the Network
forensics layer the cloud is present. The next layer consists of the Devices Level Forensics.
This section constitutes of the different devices that are being used in the process.
Karabiyik, Umit, and Kemal, stated that in the year 2010, Zaharis and his team had
proposed another model that could have been used. The model consisted of 5 forensic
protection layers. These layers were used to eliminate the malicious codes that are present in
the WSNs. Sand boxing methods are used in the process of architectural development.
However, this architecture had a major flaw. The flaw was that it could not performing full
memory dumping. This leads to the fact that data analysis process was getting affected in a
