Digital forensics is the practice of identifying, acquiring, and analyzing electronic evidence. Today, almost all criminal activity has a digital component, and digital forensics experts provide critical assistance to police investigations. Digital forensic data is commonly used in court proceedings.
An important part of digital forensics is the analysis of suspected cyberattacks, with the objective of identifying, mitigating, and eradicating cyber threats. It is also useful in the aftermath of an attack, providing information for auditors, legal teams, or law enforcement.
Electronic evidence can be gathered from computers, mobile devices, remote storage, IoT devices, and virtually any computerized system.
Digital forensics impacts society broadly. Computers and devices are used in every aspect of life, making digital evidence critical for solving crimes and legal issues in both digital and physical worlds.
All connected devices generate massive amounts of data, logging user actions and autonomous device activities, including cars, mobile phones, routers, PCs, traffic lights, and more.
Digital forensics follows a structured process: identifying, preserving, analyzing, documenting, and reporting evidence.
Digital evidence is any data collected from electronic storage, wireless networks, or RAM. Examples include:
Investigators rely on modern digital forensics tools to securely, efficiently, and lawfully retrieve evidence from devices.
