iPhone release witnessed a significant impact on Forensic research community. iPhone Forensic research in many ways paved contributed to Smartphone research. Forensic investigators facing many challenges while analyzing the evidence on iPhone because of factors like frequent version upgrades, file system on iPhone and lack of sophisticated tools or methods for iPhone forensic analysis. On the o...

KEYWORDS Security policy; Forensic policy; IT management; Forensic readiness; Statistics Computer security is of concern to those in IT (Information Technology) and forensic readiness (being prepared to deal effectively with events that may require forensic investigation) is a growing issue. Data held only on magnetic or other transient media require expert knowledge and special procedures to p...

In this era of information technology, email applications are the foremost and extensively used electronic communication technology. Emails are profusely used to exchange data and information using several frontend applications from various service providers by its users. Currently most of the email clients and service providers now moved to secured data communications using SSL or TLS security...

In this paper we present refinements on previously-proposed approaches to forensic analysis of database tampering. We significantly generalize the basic structure of these algorithms to admit new characterizations of the “where” axis of the corruption diagram. Specifically, we introduce page-based partitioning as well as attribute-based partitioning along with their associated corruption diagra...

The architecture of existing – first generation – computer forensic tools, including the widely used EnCase and FTK products, is rapidly becoming outdated. Tools are not keeping pace with increased complexity and data volumes of modern investigations. This paper discuses the limitations of first generation computer forensic tools. Several metrics for measuring the efficacy and performance of co...

Forensic DNA Applications: An Interdisciplinary Perspective (2014; Edited by Dragan Primorac and Moses Schanfield. CRC Press, Taylor Francis Group. 23 Chapters, 621 pages) is intended for different types of audiences interested in forensic medicine. It could be both a textbook for forensic molecular biology students and a reference book for practitioners of forensic molecular biology. Moreover ...

This paper analyses the performance of several automatic speaker recognition systems using a real forensic database. The systems evaluated have been tested or are currently in use by forensic institutes. A comprehensive error analysis is performed in order to assess the each system’s behaviour to real casework. We further investigate compensation techniques aimed at minimising the performance g...

Combing through the literature on forensic linguistics, it becomes apparent that FL could be seen as a sub-branch of applied linguistics (on an academic discipline level and in terms of theory and the units of analysis), or as a branch of forensic sciences (at a practical level and in terms of its application to the legal setting). These links might help in clarifying misconceptions regarding t...

Computer forensics is the application of investigation and analysis techniques to gather and preserve evidence from a particular computing device in a way that is suitable for presentation in a court of law. Behavior analysis is rooted in the behaviorist tradition and utilizes learning principles to bring about behavior change. Digital forensics is a branch of forensic science encompassing the ...

The teaching and practice of forensic pathology and public health on an integrated basis or as one in which these disciplines are closely associated dates back to the turn of the century, as exemplified by the publication in 1902 of John Glaister's Textbook of Medical Jurisprudence, Toxicology and Public Health. In the metamorphosis of medical training and medical practice, however, current cir...
