Forensic Investigations in Cloud Environments

Cloud computing has revolutionized the way organizations store, process, and share data. However, this technological shift has also introduced new challenges for forensic investigations. As more businesses migrate their critical operations to the cloud, it becomes crucial to understand the unique aspects of conducting forensic investigations in cloud environments. This research paper explores the key considerations, methodologies, and tools involved in conducting effective forensic investigations in cloud environments. The paper highlights the potential challenges and provides recommendations to address them, emphasizing the importance of proactive measures and collaboration between cloud service providers and investigators. The insights gained from this research aim to contribute to the development of best practices for forensic investigations in the cloud.

An area presenting new opportunities for both legitimate business, as well as criminal organizations, is Cloud computing. This work gives a strong background in current digital forensic science, as well as a basic understanding of the goal of Law Enforcement when conducting digital forensic investigations. These concepts are then applied to digital forensic investigation of cloud environments in both theory and practice, and supplemented with current literature on the subject. Finally, legal challenges with digital forensic investigations in cloud environments are discussed.

Cloud Computing and Forensic Accounting: Friends or Foes?

Is Cloud computing another IT revolution or evolution? Whether cloud computing is classified as another revolution or evolution or not; this is no longer the question being asked by most people. Key issues which it still raises are questions about its implications for security and its readiness for forensic investigations. There is no doubt that cloud computing will offer some benefit such as increased flexibility, reduced costs and business agility etc. However, crime has a new frontier and cloud computing creates breeding grounds for digital evidence. Recent study has shown that security, privacy, jurisdiction and lack of control as being common of the stumbling blocks for companies adopting cloud computing. As Birk (2011) pointed out, most discussion so far is centred, mostly, around cloud security, data privacy and data protection. But to date, aspects of forensic investigation in cloud environment have been neglected by the research community. This paper explores challenges posed by cloud computing focusing on issues associated with the acquisition of evidence in virtualised environments. Since its advent, there has been a profound shift regarding the nature of digital evidence and throughout this paper we explore how cloud computing will impact the current tools, frameworks and procedures used or followed in forensic investigation.
