Digital forensics refers to finding electronic evidences related to crimes. As cyber crimes are increasing daily, digital forensics for finding electronic evidences is also becoming important. At present, various aspects of digital forensics have being researched including the overall process model and analysis techniques such as network forensics, system forensics and database forensics for digital forensics. Regarding database forensics, only analysis techniques dependent on specific vendors have been suggested. And general process models and analysis techniques which can be used in various databases have not been studied. This paper proposes an integrated process model and analysis technique for database forensics. The proposed database forensics model (DFM) allows us to solve problems and analyze databases according to the situation and purpose, and to use a standard model and techniques for various database analyses. In order to test our model(DFM), we applied it to various database analyses. And we confirmed the results of our experiment that it can be applicable to acquisition in the scene as well as analysis of data relationships.

Computer Forensics functions by defending the effects and extracting the evidence of the side effects for production at the court. Has the faultlessness of the digital evidence been compromised during the investigation, a critical evidence may be denied or not even be presented at the trial. The presented monograph will deliberate the faultlessness-establishing chain procedures in disk forensics. system forensics, network forensics, mobile forensics and database forensics. Once the faultlessness is established by the methods proposed, the products of investigation will be adopted as a leading evidence. Moreover, the issues and alternatives in the reality of digital investigation are presented along with the actual computer forensics cases, hopefully contributing to the advances in computer digital forensics and the field research of information security.

Microbes and their toxins can be bioweapons that bioterrorists use them to commit bioterrorism and biocrime. Due to the potential and relative ease of the bioattack, life-threat pathogenic agents (bacteria, viruses, and toxins) as bioweapon revealed the need for a new field of microbial forensics. Microbial forensics is a new scientific discipline combining microbiology and forensic science, which is focused on characterization of evidence from a bioterrorism, biocrime, and an inadvertent release of biothreat agents. The sophisticated analytical tool and knowledge of microbial forensics can provide investigative leads and help determine who was responsible for the biocrime, the source of the bioweapon, and how and where the bioweapon was produced. Among the fields of microbial forensics, this paper will briefly describe evidence collection, handling, packaging, transportation, storage, analytical methods of evidence, and review microbial forensics as a response to bioterrorism and biocrime.

The soaring increase in the number of Internet users combined with the constant computerization of business process has created new opportunities for computer criminals and terrorist. Fortunately, the computer security field is also progressing at a brisk rate. In particular, the field of computer forensics brings new ways of preserving and analyzing evidence related to computer crime. Computer forensics is a new emerging professions of the 21st century. It is the collection, preservation, analysis, and presentation of computer related evidence. For this reason, the various technology of computer forensics is regarded as a powerful tool for suppressing computer crime. Our aims is to introduce the overview of computer forensics technology. We also present the survey results of the state of the art of computer forensics in the domestics and of foreign country.

The field of digital forensics requires good theoretical and practical knowledge, so practitioners should have an in-depth understanding and knowledge of both theory and practical as they need to take decisions which impacts human lives. With the demand and advancements in the realm of digital forensics, many universities around the globe are offering digital forensics programs, but there is a huge gap between the skills acquired by the student's and the market needs. This research work explores the problems faced by digital forensics programs, and provides solution to overcome the gap between the skills acquired by the student's and the market needs using Activity led learning pedagogy for digital forensics programs.

With an increasing demand of powerful electronic goods, smart TV containing network module with digital TV gets more popular. These change are meaningful from a digital forensics perspective because smart TV store more user's data than digital TV. In this paper, we suggest smart TV forensics as a branch of digital forensics. With smart TV forensics, investigator can trace more wide age group's activities than existing digital forensics analysis.

As digital evidence becomes more important in criminal investigations, disputes are increasing in court. As media diversifies and the scope of analysis expands, the level of expertise in digital forensics is also increasing. However, no competency model has been developed to define the capabilities of digital evidence examiners or to judge their expertise. There have been some studies that have derived the capabilities necessary for digital evidence examiner, but they are still insufficient. Therefore, in this study, 25 competency evaluation factors in a total of 9 competency groups were defined using methodologies such as expert FGI and Delphi survey. Specifically, it was defined as Digital Forensics Theory, Digital Evidence Collection&Management, Disk Forensics, Mobile Forensics, Video Forensics, infringement forensics, DB Forensics, Embedded(IoT) Forensics, and Cloud Forensics. The digital evidence examiner competency model is expected to be used in various fields such as recruitment, education and training, and performance evaluation in the future.

Although the various crime involved numerous digital evidence, the digital evidence is hard to be acknowledged as a evidence to proof the crime fact in court. We propose the method of verification for the legal admissibility of digital evidence using digital forensics ontology. In order to verify the legal admissibility of digital evidence, we will extend the digital ontology by standard digital forensics process from Digital Forensics Technical Manual defined by KNPA and set up the relation properties and the rule of property constraint to process class in the digital forensics ontology. It is possible for proposed ontology to utilize to plan the criminal investigation and to educate the digital forensics.

Home networking and its security issues are directly related. Previous studies have shown that home-network and understanding the security of it is a problem for non-technical users. The existing network management tools or ISP adapter tools are far too technical and difficult to be understood by ordinary home-network users. Its interface is not non-technical user-directed and does not address the home user's needs in securing their network. This paper presents an interactive security monitoring tool, which emphasizes support features for home-network users. The tool combines an interactive visual appearance with a persuasive approach that supports sustainability. It is not only an easy-to-use tool for all categories of home-network users but also acts as a monitoring feature for the user to secure their home-network.
