Abstract

In the field of digital forensics science, investigation of digital crime is conducted using the various scientific approaches. Anti-forensics is the practice of preventing the use of forensic evidence, and its motives can be either beneficial or detrimental. This project’s goal is to mimic a scenario of a digital crime and do forensic anti-forensic analysis in order to improve security. To complete this study, a variety of forensic and anti-forensic instruments and approaches are being used. The findings showed that although investigating digital crime may be challenging but it is nevertheless possible with the use of modern forensic and anti-forensic techniques. Investigation of cyberattacks is crucial because it can aid in damage reduction and the development of future preventative strategies. Currently, the research is a combination of sophisticated tools and digital forensics in order to analyze evolve cyberattacks more than ever before that are not attack agnostic. As a result, the amount of previously unheard-of software and procedures used is inversely proportionate to how effective these intelligent instruments are. In this research, a framework for digital forensics evaluation and ...
