Investigations have also ranged from a single device, with a relatively simple goal, through to the analysis and investigation of entire corporations. Looking to identify those responsible for unauthorised attacks or obtaining business critical data.

As technology advances there is a push to having a greater reliability on electronic media and the data it holds.  Increasing the risk of cyber-attacks.  As a result, computers, data storage devices and their infrastructure become the scenes of crime.

Where devices can effectively be either the victim or part of the attack.  Whether used to gain unauthorised access to data systems or used as an instrument in the commission of a crime, such as the creation of a false document or identity.

For examples of digital forensic assignments → Storage devices are likely to hold evidence, which proves or disprove a party’s guilt or innocence.  Such evidence could be in the form of communication, emails or text messages.   Internet history or jump lists relating to activity.  Contact information, showing associations between parties.  It’s not just the physical content of documents or messages that are likely to provide the evidence.  But also, the ‘metadata’ associated with the files. The dates and times, when files were created, accessed or edited, which user was responsible for the modification are just a few of the examples.
