Computer forensics
or cyberforensics is a relatively new discipline in the
world of computer security. It is a type of investigation,
wherein the cyber experts gather digital evidence and
present it in the court.
The aim of computer forensics is to carry out a structured
and detailed investigation without disturbing the documented
links of evidence. It helps recognize what happened on the
computer at the point & time including who was accountable.
Computer forensics
investigators follow the systematic procedures to seize the
culprit. The procedure involves three phases for retrieving
the proof from the computer system or any storage medium.
These phases include acquiring phase, analyzing phase and
reporting phase.

Description Of Phases
First, the computer
forensic experts isolate the system so that evidence is not
contaminated. Then they create a digital replica of the system's
hard drive. After, making the replica of the hard drive, the
experts lock it and store it safely in the secure storage to
maintain its accuracy.
Thus, evidence collection is of utmost importance because it
helps in apprehending the culprit.
The analyzing phase comprises of using different techniques and
forensic applications to investigate or study the hard copy.
They search for any hidden files, folders, unallocated spaces in
disks, deleted messages, damaged and encrypted files.
In reporting phase, the computer forensic experts verify the
findings, details with the original copy and document it in the
finding report. Computer forensics experts then present this
report in the court for actual litigation.

Conclusion
Although, federal agencies use computer forensics to keep
track and seize the terrorists or hackers, its use in the
private organizations have also increased tremendously.
Individuals seek help of computer forensics in case of
identity thefts, to prevent hacking of crucial information
from security systems and so on.
Computer forensics experts carry their investigation by
trailing the computer criminals. However, locating such
criminals is not an easy task. With advancement in
technology, online criminals have become more sophisticated
and advanced. Therefore, computer forensics experts are
constantly creating and upgrading their software to tackle
and alleviate the computer crimes. Last thing to keep in
mind is if it has been built it can be broken. Ah technology
isn’t it grand!
