CHAPTER 1
Introduction
In a word, the computer scientist is a toolsmith—no more, but no less. It is an honorable calling.
Frederick P. Brooks, Jr. [66]
Forensic science (or forensics) is dedicated to the systematic application of scientific methods to gather and analyze evidence for a legal purpose. Digital forensics—a.k.a. cyber or computer forensics—is a subfield within forensics, which deals specifically with digital artifacts, such as files, and computer systems and networks used to create, transform, transmit, and store them.
The rapid adoption of information technology (IT) in all aspects of modern life means that it bears witness to an ever expanding number of human- and machine-initiated interactions and transactions. It is increasingly the case that the only historical trace
