Case reviews in corporate, civil, and criminal situations are also described from both prosecution and defense perspectives. Digital Forensics Explained, Second Edition draws from years of experience in local, state, federal, and international environments and highlights the challenges inherent in deficient cyber security practices. Topics include the importance of following the scientific method and verification, legal and ethical issues, planning an investigation including tools and techniques , incident response, case project management and authorization, social media and internet, cloud, anti-forensics, link and visual analysis, and psychological considerations.
The book is a valuable resource for the academic environment, law enforcement, those in the legal profession, and those working in the cyber security field. Case reviews include cyber security breaches, anti-forensic challenges, child exploitation, and social media investigations.
He has worked more than cases in criminal, civil, and corporate environments. Digital Forensics, Investigation, and Response, Fourth Edition examines the fundamentals of system forensics, addresses the tools, techniques, and methods used to perform computer forensics and investigation, and explores incident and intrusion response,. The field of digital for- sics is growing rapidly with implications for several fields including law enforcement, network security, disaster recovery and accounting.
This is a multidisciplinary area that requires expertise in several areas including, law, computer science, finance, networking, data mining, and criminal justice.

Now, more than ever, it is paramount that an investigator develops programming expertise to deal with increasingly large datasets. By leveraging the Python recipes explored throughout this book, we make the complex simple, quickly extracting relevant information from large datasets.
You will explore, develop, and deploy Python code and libraries to provide meaningful results that can be immediately applied to your investigations. Throughout the Python Digital Forensics Cookbook, recipes include topics such as working with forensic evidence containers, parsing mobile and desktop operating system artifacts, extracting embedded metadata from documents and executables, and identifying indicators of compromise.
By the end of the book, you will have a sound understanding of Python and how you can use it to process artifacts in your investigations.
Style and approach Our succinct recipes take a no-frills approach to solving common challenges faced in investigations. The code in this book covers a wide range of artifacts and data sources. These examples will help improve the accuracy and efficiency of your analysis—no matter the situation. A Book by John Sammons. Threatscape and Best Practices by John Sammons. A Book by Eoghan Casey. Forensic Science Background to the Case Therese Brain child, a master accountant hired by Safe Data Associates was suspected of being engaged in cyber crimes, industrial espionage, embezzlement and terrorism.
Brainchild opted to delete files from her thumb drive kept at her workstation before being escorted from the building and her administrative duties. To conduct an effective and efficient investigation, I employed the use of the Forensic Tool Kit Imager software FTK Imager in order to recover the files deleted from the thumb drive said to be that of Brainchild's; Based on my expert knowledge of digital forensics, these deleted files will still be lingering in what is called the 'unallocated space' of the thumb drive.
She was questioned in order to acquire legitimacy for data acquisition. The following questions were brought forward: Questions 1. Is the computer system, thumb drive and other devices personal or were they assigned to Brainchild by the company?
If these devices were assigned by the company, were they being used before, during and or shortly after they were assigned to the accused Therese Brainchild? Search and seizer and transport of evidence A request was filed for legal authorities to enter the dwelling of Theresa Brainchild.
The warrant was issued for the search and seizer of devices which may be analyzed and serve as digital evidence, in order to convict or exonerate her.
Upon the search and seizer of the necessary devices which may provide digital evidence, the acquired materials were carefully package and a chain of custody was efficiently established; so to ensure the integrity of the evidence. Burgundy Wi-Fi Mobile Cellphone 2. Nokia Mobile Phone 3. Black Dapeng cellphone 3 Vincenzo D. Were the three 3 cell phones; exhibits 1, 2 and 4 [serial- , and , respectively] used to call individuals, or browse for information which may be deemed as incriminating and of relevance to the investigation?
Did anyone else other than the accused have access to the thumb drive; exhibit 3 [serial- FYY ] before, during and or after Brainchild's possession of it? Evidence to Search For Based on the nature of the case and all that which have been made against the accused Therese Brainchild , to begin analysis of the obtained evidence, the search for data of probative value to the investigation will be in the area of; A acquiring the browsing data from the laptop and cell phones' browsers, B investigate the previous locations and calls made to and from the cell phones, C The acquisition of files deleted from the laptop, phone memories and most importantly files deleted from the thumb drive.
Deleted files of evidentiary value to the case 5. These documents contained; code clues, encrypted and steganographic files, erroneous documents, stolen credit cards information, cheque details, information on lottery winners.
