AUTOMATING DIGITAL FORENSIC EVIDENCE COLLECTION

摘要

A system for automatic collection and analysis of digital forensic evidence by a cloud service provider is disclosed. The system utilizes machine learning models to identify and store digital forensic evidence relating to cybercrimes committed using a cloud service. Particularly, if an image or video file uploaded to the cloud service provider is determined to relate to illicit, illegal, or malicious activity, relevant digital forensic evidence is extracted and stored for later provision to law enforcement. The digital forensic evidence that is collected may be used to assist law enforcement in their investigations of criminal activity, as well as aid in the successful prosecution of criminals in court proceedings.
