The Governance of Digital Forensic Investigation in Law Enforcement Agencies

Abstract

The volume of data for cybercrime investigation keeps growing at unprecedented rates and creating a quandary for law enforcement agencies. This brings a great challenge for law enforcement agencies. It requires the sincere examination of all available data volumes at crime scene or in lab to present digital evidence in a court of law. In order to maintain the integrity and validity of digital evidence, investigators must establish a process model that can provide a quick response at scene. This paper illustrates the novel TEAR-phase application of THOR dimensions to digital forensics. It facilitates the efficiency and effectiveness of constructing a clear investigation.
