Computer forensics is an important part of any cybercrime investigation because it allows law enforcement to collect and examine data that can be used to prove a cybercrime. Despite the occasionally justified use of proof, it is frequently met with skepticism and ambiguity in the courts. There is currently a moratorium on the use of untested forensic method in courtroom court cases, it is still difficult to consistently prove the proof obtained through this method. Because of the nature of electronic records and the privacy restrictions that surround them, it is no longer possible to rely solely on the information gathered through this process. The purpose of this article is to discuss current challenges and issues in the field of computer forensics that are impeding scientific validation of digital forensics.
