Digital Forensics for Legal Professionals
Digital Forensics for Legal Professionals provides you
with a guide to digital technology forensics in plain English. In
the authors' years of experience in working with attorneys as
digital forensics experts, common questions arise again and
again: "What do I ask for?” "Is the evidence relevant?” "What
does this item in the forensic report mean?” "What should I ask
the other expert?” "What should I ask you?” "Can you explain that
to a jury?” This book answers many of those questions in clear
language that is understandable by non-technical people. With
many illustrations and diagrams that will be usable in court,
they explain technical concepts such as unallocated space,
forensic copies, timeline artifacts and metadata in simple terms
that make these concepts accessible to both attorneys and juries.
