Evidence Recovery using EnCase and FTK in Forensic Computing Investigation
Keywords:
Forensic Computing, Digital Evidence, FTK, EncaseAbstract
Evidence retrieval from digital devices using tools of forensic computing is always challenging job and an exciting new frontier awaits criminologists in the cyberspace age. The forensic tools such as EnCase and FTK that have been frequently utilized to examine cybercrime are the topic of this research. There are always digital traces of every contact. It is difficult to uncover evidence in cyber-evidence investigations. The recovery of numerous types of files and photos has been achieved after using FTK and EnCase. If AccessData FTK 7.1.0 is used in conjunction with EnCase v8.08, then the accuracy of carving evidence is improved over a demo version of FTK. In this way, both tools are useful to cyber investigators for minimal data acquisition, which is applicable to potential evidence recovery from digital media. Cyber Forensics or Forensic Computing, then, is a combination of methodology and technical knowledge for early bird investigators with legal obligations.
