Computer forensics may be applicable in any case in which the overall objective is to provide digital evidence of a specific or general activity. It can be anything from the simple identification and recovery of files to the
investigation of
industrial espionage or criminal fraud and deception.
Computer forensics is a detailed science. It is done objectively, as a “truth finding” mission. During the
investigation it’s critical to maintain a complete audit log of all forensic activities which may include, among others:
- Securing the subject system.
- Producing a copy of the hard drive.
- Identification and recovery of all files, including audio, video, and graphical images.
- Accessing hidden, protected, or deleted files.
- Inspecting residue on the drive for previously deleted files.
- Investigation of data from installed applications or programs.
