Dashcam as an on-board camera is useful as a source of potential digital evidence not only to reveal the truth of a traffic accident but also to explain the situation of a crime scene as a moving surveillance camera. It stores multimedia data as well as a variety of additional information needed for accident investigation including time, location, speed, accelerometer, etc. Under these circumstances, various studies have been conducted for dashcam forensics, but most of them focused mainly on ex

With the development of Internet technology, cloud-based services have improved the availability and usability of resources. Among them, cloud storage services enable users to remotely store, access, or share data over a network. Therefore, digital forensic investigators need to collect data stored in remote servers to comprehensively understand a suspect's activities. Although several well-known commercial digital forensic tools provide features for cloud data acquisition in order to support th

Spoliation of evidence is a critical concern in various crimes such as information leakage, digital sexual crimes, accounting fraud, and copyright infringement. Several traditional digital forensic investigation methods such as recovery, carving, and anti-forensic behavior tracking are used to investigate these crimes. However, as technology has advanced, recovery and carving have become increasingly challenging. Shortly, data recovery will reach its technological limit, and it will be essential

Network-attached storage (NAS) is a system that uses a redundant array of disks (RAID) to create virtual disks comprising multiple disks and provide network services such as FTP, SSH, and WebDAV. Using these services, the NAS's virtual disks store data about individuals or groups, making them a critical analysis target for digital forensics. Well-known storage manufacturers like Seagate, Synology, and NETGEAR use Linux-based software RAID, and they usually support Berkeley RAID (e.g., RAID 0, 1,

Electronic documents often contain personal or confidential information, which can be used as valuable evidence in criminal investigations. In the digital investigation, special techniques are required for grouping and screening electronic documents, because it is challenging to analyze relationships between numerous documents in storage devices manually. To this end, although techniques such as keyword search, similarity search, topic modeling, metadata analysis, and document clustering are con

The fields of health care, education, culture, and shopping can all be integrated into the core of a smart city to create an infrastructure that allows people to live more conveniently. We must think ahead about cybersecurity, as cyberattacks can threaten the lives of citizens.

The web browsing activities of a user provide useful evidence for digital forensic investigations. However, existing analysis techniques that aim to analyze local artifacts (e.g., history and cache) cannot find useful data (e.g., visited URLs) if a user accesses the web using private or secret mode. Hence, string-searching and pattern-matching techniques have been proposed and used to examine user activities from a memory dump. These simple techniques are useful for identifying individual URLs v
