A Systematic Literature Review in Cyber Forensics: Current Trends from the Client Perspective

Abstract: Nowadays, with the demand of web applications there is also an increase in the number of problems and crimes that demand an investigation that requires digital forensics techniques in order to manage web evidence. Although there are several studies that address cyber forensics, they are mainly oriented to manage evidence at server side, as far as we know, no systematic literature reviews have been reported on how cyber forensics is addressed at clients’ side; considering the internationals standards. Thus, this paper presents a literature review about how cyber forensics is addressed at clients’ side related to techniques of identification, collection, analysis, preservation and report of digital evidence. Also, a review of how standards are being used in cyber forensics focused on the client side. The aim of this study is to provide a background of relevant activities that are considered by investigators to handle potentially digital evidence from web environments, considering what internationals standards are solving for this purpose. Thus, a total of 37 studies have been selected and analyzed in this study. Moreover, this study provides important insights about the need to create methodologies aligned with formal standards that support the management of the evidence in an appropriate way.

Artificial Intelligence as a New IT Means of Solving and Investigating Crimes

Abstract: Purpose: The purpose of this research is to distinguish the notion of legal, forensic and IT functioning of artificial intelligence in current criminal investigation methods.

Penerapan composite logic dalam mengkolaborasikan framework terkait multimedia forensik

Abstract: Like the digital forensics in general, multimedia forensics requires an integrated and flexible framework that can guide the process of proof is procedurally in order to maintain the validity of a digital evidence so that it can be justified in court. But this time, the digital forensics investigation framework that develops more emphasis on computer forensic investigations in general and did not give a specific stage of multimedia forensics. Often in investigating multimedia forensics investigator uses a framework that vary depending on the type of multimedia content to be analyzed, of course it becomes inflexible and inefficient, whereas multimedia content share characteristics that allow it to be integrated into a single unit. This study develops a forensic multimedia framework by implementing the Composite Logic to collaborate on several multimedia framework and related documents. Logic Composite method is a method of modeling the distribution of structured logical modularization techniques with explicit interface in which a model consists of a set of components that are interconnected with the principle of decomposition. In other words, the application of this method will allow researchers to extract and merge several frameworks into a single unit does not eliminate the function and the basic structure of the frameworks.

What Is Cybercrime

Abstract: Computer forensic experts are commonly faced with the misconception that they work primarily on cybercrimes. The reality is quite opposite, namely that digital forensics is of importance in pretty much every possible type of crime ranging from computer intrusions to theft. This chapter provides a discussion on what cybercrime is, from the author’s perspective. But more importantly, this chapter gives the reader a presentation on how and in what cases digital evidence can be of use during criminal investigations. The aim of the chapter is to make the reader understand that in the modern world, we leave digital traces almost all the time. We may not always be aware of this fact, but knowing and understanding how digital traces are left behind is of great importance for a computer forensic expert. For instance, even if a criminal is conducting a crime without so much as looking at her phone or computer, chances are that she is a using chat client to talk to some friend about what she did. This action can leave incriminating evidence that can be valuable in court.
