Reconstruction of long digital extensor tendon by cranial tibial muscle fascia graft in a dog

Tendon rupture in dogs is generally the result of a direct trauma. This report described the use of adjacent muscle autogenic fascial graft for reconstruction of distal rupture of long digital extensor tendon in a dog. A two-year-old male mix breed dog, was presented with a non-weight bearing lameness of the right hind limb and a deep rupture of lateral side of right tarsus. History taking reve...

Digital Forensics: Emerging Trends and Analysis of Counter-Security Environment

Corporates and organizations across the globe are spending huge sums on information security as they are reporting an increase in security related incidents. The proliferation of cloud, social network and multiple mobile device usage is on one side represent an opportunity and benefits to the organisation and on other side have posed new challenges for those policing cybercrimes. Cybercriminals...

Framework for Next Generation Digital Forensics Models

Digital Forensics is a fairly new discipline, which due to the heavy overlap with the computer science and information technology is now categorized within the computer science field. On the other hand, the legal side of digital forensics is mainly coming from the traditional forensics procedures and the law. Therefore, the current models are modeling the process of digital investigation to be ...

Reconstruction in Database Forensics

The increasing usage of databases in the storage of critical and sensitive information in many organizations has led to an increase in the rate at which databases are exploited in computer crimes. Databases are often manipulated to facilitate crimes and as such are usually of interest during many investigations as useful information relevant to the investigation can be found therein. A branch o...
