Evaluation of cloud hosted digital forensic solutions and challenges : A systematic literature review

Tysk, Henrik January 2024 (has links)
Everything in modern society is rapidly becoming digitised, which increases both the accessibility and convenience of many services. The downside is that cybercrime is increasing at the same rate. We need digital evidence in order to prosecute cyber-criminals, and in order to capture digital evidence, we need digital forensics. Digital forensics have become increasingly challenging for investigators. The amount of data we generate keeps increasing, which amplifies the workload significantly. More data is being stored in cloud environments, which adds further complexity to investigations. One approach to dealing with these challenges is to move digital forensics to cloud services and utilising their computational power and sharing capabilities to enhance digital investigations. This study examines what types of cloud hosted digital forensic platforms or frameworks exist, and what their differences are. It is also investigated if there are any specific challenges when using cloud services to host digital forensics. The study uses a systematic literature review to gather data, which is analyzed with thematic coding. The results show that there are many different methods for hosting digital forensics in a cloud environment, which vary greatly in both scope and underlying technology. It is found that most frameworks are theoretical and have yet to be used in real world scenarios, and only one is being used by law enforcement. It was also found that there are challenges which are specific to this type of digital forensics, such as insufficient service level agreements by cloud service providers and privacy related challenges.
