چکیده

Cloud storage services are increasingly used by consumers, business, and government. These services are fairly easy to obtain. Amazon Cloud Drive is a cloud-based storage that allows users to transfer files to and from multiple computers. This paper was undertaken to determine the data remnants on an Ubuntu computer. We focus on exploring the cloud activities of Amazon Cloud Drive and try to obtain evidences that may be left under these activities, and different Internet browsers. By determining the data remnants on client devices, we attempt to enhance the efficiency of the digital forensics and crime investigation.
