Framework for a Digital Forensic Investigation

Computer Forensics is essential for the successful prosecution of computer criminals. For a forensic investigation to be performed successfully there are a number of important steps that have to be considered and taken. The aim of this paper is to define a clear, step-by-step framework for the collection of evidence suitable for presentation in a court of law. Existing forensic models will be surveyed and then adapted to create a specific application framework for single computer, entry point forensics.
