Abstract

The TOR browser is the most popular browser for surfing the Internet while being anonymous. This paper studies the digital artifacts left behind by TOR browser over the network and within the host. These artifacts give the most crucial forensic evidence for digital investigators to prove any unauthorized or unlawful activities. The paper also presents methods for retrieving more useful artifacts when compared to previous works and also investigates on Firefox, Chrome Incognito, and Internet Explorer. The results show that even the much-acclaimed TOR browser also leaves evidence and traces behind.
