Cyber forensics has become an essential component for many contemporary investigations, as it offers a way to identify and analyze digital evidence from computers, networks and cell phones. In India's increasing digital ecosystem, the need for professionals with these skills continues to steadily grow. These services are supporting investigations on all kinds of cybercrimes (data breach, impersonation and identity theft, economic fraud, online harassment, etc.) and the outcome is to deliver findings that are legally defensible evidence in court.
The Growing Need for Digital Investigations
As technology becomes integrated into our daily lives, the risks of cybercrime grow. Law Enforcement agencies and commercial organizations continue to depend on digital forensic investigations. For commercial organizations, digital forensic investigations are essential for developing a proper response plan if they experience insider threats, data leaks, corporate espionage, etc. Digital forensic investigations provide a detailed technical chronological account of what happened, when it happened, and who was involved, if possible. For all digital forensic investigations, the capabilities to recover deleted files and reconstruct timelines, or sequences of events, are critical to resolving complicated cases.
Scope of Cyber Forensics
If you encounter a professional digital forensic investigation, it will systematically apply a series of steps to methodically extract information from the original device, into a digital forensics copy of the data that does not alter the evidence being examined. After preserving the integrity of the original data, the analyst uses forensic software to further examine the data to uncover hidden and potentially deleted data, or corrupted data that was modified, that would go unnoticed in a basic examination of the data.
Digital forensic investigators examine a wide range of artifacts including:
Mobile Forensics: Mobile device forensics are digital forensics investigations of data stored on smartphones, including a wide range of artifacts such as call logs, messages, and activity in apps.
Network Forensics: Network forensics is the use of digital forensics methodologies to examine a network in order to identify digital assets that were attacked or where another type of network breach originated.
Cloud Forensics: Cloud forensics is the investigation of a digital asset stored in a cloud-based digital storage solution such as Google Drive, or Amazon Web Services (AWS).
Email forensics: Email forensics is used to find deleted messages and to trace the source of emails that were sent.
Digital forensic investigations will usually include formal reporting that will summarize a comprehensive view of digital activity.
