Abstract
With the development of Internet and information technology, the digital crimes are also on the rise. Computer forensics is an emerging research area that applies computer investigation and analysis techniques to help detection of these crimes and gathering of digital evidence suitable for presentation in courts. This paper provides foundational concept of computer forensics, outlines various principles of computer forensics, discusses the model of computer forensics and presents a proposed model.
This paper is supported by the Special Basic Research, Ministry of Science and Technology of the People’s Republic of China, project number: 2008FY240200.
