RE: Week 9 Discussion
The major advantage of commercial forensic packages are dedicated technical support and admissibility in court. The computer forensic field is somehow new, so the dedicated technical programs are created costs of an to be used by law enforcement to extract digital evidence, the information would be admissible in court. Disadvantages may include a high initial cost for the package and continued costs of annual licensing and maintenance.
The key process that a forensic analyst could use in order to preserve the verifiable integrity of digital evidence begins with written documentation of the steps to properly mantain securiy, for example chain of custody. Next, the analyst can create redundant physical copies or duplicates kept in an alternative place to avoid loss of evidence the case of a disaster. The analyst could use physical security to prevent the evidence from being modified and stopping unauthorized access to data or the loss of data.
