Digital evidence can support investigations, disciplinary matters, litigation and incident response when it is identified, preserved, examined and explained appropriately.
What good practice looks like
The intended use determines the necessary acquisition, continuity, validation and reporting. Investigators should preserve context as well as individual artefacts.
Risks and common mistakes
Screenshots alone may omit provenance, metadata and surrounding context. Delay can also result in loss of cloud, account or log data.
