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.

It is a current situation that a large number of physical and financial damages are increasing due to the growth of intellectual cyber crime and unexpected Internet incidents year by year. In the large scale security incidents, digital forensics techniques for computer crime investigations are essential to secure a place in the field. However, qualified digital forensics investigators who complete with digital security technology are practically insufficient in domestic. In this paper, as one of developing human resources plans regarding to scientific investigation of Internet security incidents, an undergraduate curriculum per stage in digital forensics was proposed. For the effective curriculum per stage, the interviews, group discussion on focused group of existing digital forensics investigators and related research were performed to select curriculum, and then the level of difficulty and practical suitability on each subject designed were analyzed through survey and interview to current investigators and security professionals. After collating the survey, the digital forensic curriculum per level was designed to highly adaptable workforce for the future for working and positive suggestions and proposals are addressed.

In this paper, a visualization digital forensics tool, called JumpList Analyzer, is implemented. The tool can analyze the complicated Jump Lists files, and then the results are demonstrated by visualization. To compare the proposed tool with the other Jump Lists tools, the proposed tool is the only one can display the analyzed results by visualization. The visualization will help the investigators more easily to find the evidence than the other tools showing the analyzed results by texts only. In the experiment, the proposed JumpList Analyzer is demonstrated its convenience at identifying artifacts for doing digital forensics in a financial fraud case. In addition, the proposed tool can also be used to reveal the computer user's behavior or background.

In network service environment, cultures from diversified fields are easily accessible thanks to the convenient digital content services. Unfortunately, unauthorized access and indiscreet misuse behaviors have deprived content owners of their copyrights. This study suggests an integrity-ensured model applicable for forensic evidence of digital content infringement in network service environment. The suggested model is based on MPEG-21 core components for digital content protection and the system is designed in connection with the components of digital content forensics. Also, the present study suggests an efficient technology to protect and manage computer forensic evidence and digital content by authorizing digital content use and catching infringing logs of authorized users without lag in network environment for the benefit of network security and reliability.

With the develoment of IT(Information Technologies) in Internet, Digital crime are increasing explosive every year. Recently, digital crime is taken advantage of technical and expert skill. It is necessary to investigate a digital crime that Digital forensic process standardization, Specialist training & education, R&D, Government support. So in this paper we proposed device of the grow of digital forensic that make analysis of the present state domestic digital forensic technique.

Live data in physical memory can be acquired by live forensics but not by harddisk file-system analysis. Therefore, in case of forensic investigation, live forensics is widely used these days. But, existing live forensic methods, that use command line tools in live system, have many weaknesses; for instance, it is not easy to re-analyze and results can be modified by malicious code. For these reasons, in this paper we explain the Windows kernel architecture and how to analyze physical memory dump files to complement weaknesses of traditional live forensics. And then, we design and implement the Physical Memory Dump Explorer, and prove the effectiveness of our tool through test results.

The digital forensics are new kinds of security that investigate and verificate fact relation about activities based on digital data. In this paper, we implemented digital forensic tool that can be used in collecting, analyzing, and reporting evidences. This tool support intuitional GUI that everybody can analyze easily. And a simple operation can collect and analyze active data. Also, we can decrease much time and endeavor by using this forensic tool that support reliable data.

DESIGNIN AND OPERATION OF DIGITAL EVIDENCE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM APPLYING COMPUTER FORENSICS AND ELECTRONIC CERTIFICATION Digital evidence will be used as a term, which means the electronic form of information which is necessary to confirm or prove the factum of all kinds of behaviors committed through the devices which have data processing ability including computer. It is expected that there will be the increase of legal conflicts surrounding electronic commerce activities as well as the increase of cyber crimes, as the number of Internet users are getting bigger. In order to solve the problems of conflicts derived from electronic commerce, the factum of electronic commerce activities must be confirmed. In order to confirm the factum of electronic commerce activities, the evidence is prerequisite. Almost all evidences relating to the electronic commerce activities exist in digital form. For the reason that the digital evidence can be easily damaged and changed, special management is required to collect, analyze, and preserve the digital evidence. In order to meet this requirement, this study proposes a basic model of digital evidence management system applying computer forensics and electronic authentication.

As the use of digital devices is becoming more commonplace, digital forensics techniques recover data to collect physical evidence during the investigation. Among them, the file forensics technique recovers deleted files, therefore, it can recover the database by recovering all files which compose the database itself. However, if the record is deleted from the database, the modified record contents will not be restored even if the file is recovered. For this reason, the database forensics technique is required to recover deleted records. Database forensics obtains metadata from database configuration files and recovers deleted records from data files. However, record recovery is difficult if database metadata such as block size cannot be obtained from the database. In this paper, we propose three methods for obtaining block size, which is database metadata. The first method uses the maximum size of free space in the block, and the second method uses the location where the block appears. The third method improves the second method to find the block size faster. The experimental results show that three methods can correctly find the block size of three DBMSes.

Recently, according with a sudden increase of records produced and stored by digital way, it becomes more important to maintain reliability and authenticity and to ensure legal effect when digital records are collected, preserved and managed. On the basis of domestic legal procedure law and record management-related legislation, this paper considered judicial admissibility of evidence on electronic records managed by National Archives of Korea and drew potential problems when these are submitted to court as a evidence. Also, this paper suggested a plan applying digital forensics technique to electronic records management to ensure admissibility of evidence about electronic records stored in National Archives of Korea.
