MITS5004 IT Security Assignment 1: Digital Forensic Evaluation Report

This presentation provides an overview of digital forensic evaluation in modern criminal investigations. It discusses the increasing importance of digital forensics due to technological advancements and its application in legal proceedings. The presentation outlines various types of digital forensics, including computer, network, and mobile device forensics, along with different process models such as the extended model for cybercrime investigation and the systematic digital forensic model. It highlights the four key steps in the investigation process: collection, examination, analysis, and reporting. The advantages of using digital forensics are also explored, such as capturing important data, identifying suspects, and preventing cyber threats. The presentation concludes by emphasizing the need to adapt digital investigation processes to the emergence of new technologies.

DIGITAL FORENSIC
EVALUATION

INTRODUCTION
 Digital forensic is the method of retrieving and analysis of data and files
which can be obtained from the various smart phones, tablets and
computers of the suspects.
 Helps in investigation and criminal proceedings.

DIGITAL FORENSIC AS SERVICE
 Use of digital forensic is increasing with the increase in the new
technology implementation in various fields.
 The data and files that are recovered can be used in the legal
proceedings [4].

TYPES OF DIGITAL FORENSIC
 Computer forensic
 Network forensic
 Mobile device forensic
 Digital image forensic
 Database forensic

MODELS OF DIGITAL FORENSIC
 Extended model for cybercrime investigation
 Systematic digital forensic model
 Digital forensic triage model

PROCESS OF DIGITAL FORENSIC APPLIED
IN INVESTIGATION
 The process is used in the investigation has mainly four sub-parts –
collection, examination, analysis and reporting.

ADVANTAGES OF USING DIGITAL
FORENSIC
 Helps in capturing important data present in the computers and devices which might
be helpful in the investigations
 Efficiently finds out suspects and criminals from different parts of the globe.
 Complicated cases like e-mail spamming and other cyber threats can be prevented by
digital forensic.

CONCLUSION
The presentation on the digital forensic evaluation states the various
methods by which the digital forensic is used in the modern criminal
investigation processes and the various models of the digital forensic that
are applicable to the process of legal proceedings. The advantages of the
implementation of digital forensic in the modern investigations have been
discussed. Thus the process of digital investigation should be adapted with
the emergence of new technologies.
