Analysis of Digital Forensic Tools

Abstract

This paper aims to analyze different tools for Forensic Data Analysis comes under the branch of Digital Forensics. Forensic data analysis is done with digital techniques. Digital forensics becomes more important in law enforcement, due to the large use of computers and mobile devices. The pattern recognition system most appropriately fits into the Analysis Phase of the Digital Forensics. Pattern Recognition involves two processes. One Process is an analysis and the second process is recognition. The result of the analysis is taken out of the attributes from the patterns to be recognized i.e., a pattern of different faces and fingerprints. These attributes are then utilized for the further process in the analysis phase which provides attention on various techniques of pattern recognition that are applied to digital forensic examinations and is proposed to develop different forensic tools to collect evidence that would be helpful to solve specific types of crimes. This evidence further helps the examiner in the analysis phase of the digital forensic process by identifying the applicable data.
