Computer
hacking forensic investigation is the process of
detecting hacking
attacks and properly extracting evidence to report the crime and
conduct audits to prevent future attacks. Computer forensics is simply
the application of computer investigation and analysis techniques in
the interests of determining potential legal evidence. Evidence might
be sought in a wide range of computer crime or misuse, including but
not limited to theft of trade secrets, theft of or destruction of
intellectual property, and fraud. CHFI investigators can draw on an
array of methods for discovering data that resides in a computer
system, or recovering deleted, encrypted, or damaged file information.
Securing
and analyzing electronic evidence is a central theme in an
ever-increasing number of conflict situations and criminal cases.
Electronic evidence is critical in the following situations:
- Disloyal employees
- Computer break-ins
- Possession of pornography
- Breach of contract
- Industrial espionage
- E-mail Fraud
- Bankruptcy
- Disputed dismissals
- Web page defacements
- Theft of company documents
Computer
forensics enables the systematic and careful identification of evidence
in computer related crime and abuse cases. This may range from tracing
the tracks of a hacker through a client’s systems, to tracing the
originator of defamatory emails, to recovering signs of fraud.
