Towards a framework for enhancing potential digital evidence presentation

摘要

In the case of digital forensic investigations, the potential digital evidence captured, the analysis, interpretation, and attribution must ultimately be presented in the form of expert reports, depositions, and testimony in any legal proceedings. If the presentation and interpretation of the potential digital evidence is conducted correctly, it is much easier and useful in apprehending the attacker and stands a much greater chance of being admissible in the event of a prosecution. Wrongly presented and interpreted potential digital evidence data might create loopholes for perpetrators to exploit, thus, making it hard to convict and prosecute them.
