• LAMM31 Digital Forensics and Digital Policing

  Digital Forensics (DF) is the process of identifying, acquiring, analysing and reporting on digital evidence (DE) used in a wide range of investigations. Digital Forensic Investigations (DFIs) have a variety of applications, being used in civil, administrative, and criminal proceedings in pursuit of DE. A typical DFI would involve the investigation of crimes such as hacking, digital espionage, counter-terrorism and possession of illegal imagery, etc. Digital Policing captures wide areas of modern policing and investigative tools, techniques, and procedures such as the use of CCTV footage and biometrics or requests to social media companies and technology providers for private data. Moreover, policing in the digital age involves regional and national databases. Each of these carry ethical and privacy implications alongside the growing use of encryption.
