“…These stages include the collection and retention of evidence for maintaining integrity and usefulness. Once identified, the evidence has a potential value and should, therefore, be collected and protected from unwanted damages that will make them unreliable, incomplete, infallible and unreliable [50]. This process is challenged in investigations involving the Cloud/Edge partly due to shared features of the Cloud/Edge environment [5,9] and reliance on the CSP to store evidence, making it available to digital investigators.…”

In recent years, there has been a dramatic change in attitude towards computers and the use of computer resources in general. Cloud and Edge computing have emerged as the most widely used technologies, including fog computing and the Internet of Things (IoT). There are several benefits in exploiting Cloud and Edge computing paradigms, such as lower costs and higher efficiency. It provides data computation and storage where data are processed, enables better data control, faster understanding and actions, and continuous operation. However, though these benefits seem to be appealing, their effects on computer forensics are somewhat undesirable. The complexity of the Cloud and Edge environments and their key features present many technical challenges from multiple stakeholders. This paper seeks to establish an in-depth understanding of the impact of Cloud and Edge computing-based environmental factors. Software and hardware tools used in the digital forensic process, forensic methods for handling tampered sound files, hidden files, image files, or images with steganography, etc. The technical/legal challenges and the open design problems (such as distributed maintenance, multitasking and practicality) highlight the various challenges for the digital forensics process.

“…Modern research on network forensics has identified several investigation techniques through which vulnerabilities and security breaches can be highlighted. Most of these investigation techniques depend on discovering, capturing, and analyzing traffic passing through the infrastructure and network devices [1]. It is necessary to determine the objective of investigating network forensics when network security suspects are present.…”

Network forensics can be an expansion associated with network security design which typically emphasizes avoidance and detection of community assaults. It covers the necessity for dedicated investigative abilities. When you look at the design, this indeed currently allows investigating harmful behavior in communities. It will help organizations to examine external and community this is undoubtedly around. It is also important for police force investigations. Network forensic techniques can be used to identify the source of the intrusion and the intruder’s location. Forensics can resolve many cybercrime cases using the methods of network forensics. These methods can extract intruder’s information, the nature of the intrusion, and how it can be prevented in the future. These techniques can also be used to avoid attacks in near future. Modern network forensic techniques face several challenges that must be resolved to improve the forensic methods. Some of the key challenges include high storage speed, the requirement of ample storage space, data integrity, data privacy, access to IP address, and location of data extraction. The details concerning these challenges are provided with potential solutions to these challenges. In general, the network forensic tools and techniques cannot be improved without addressing these challenges of the forensic network. This paper proposed a thematic taxonomy of classifications of network forensic techniques based on extensive. The classification has been carried out based on the target datasets and implementation techniques while performing forensic investigations. For this purpose, qualitative methods have been used to develop thematic taxonomy. The distinct objectives of this study include accessibility to the network infrastructure and artifacts and collection of evidence against the intruder using network forensic techniques to communicate the information related to network attacks with minimum false-negative results. It will help organizations to investigate external and internal causes of network security attacks.

Recently, the exponential growth of Internet of Things (IoT) network-connected devices has resulted in the exchange of large amounts of data via a smart grid. This extensive connection between IoT devices results in numerous security breaches and violations. Due to the increasing prevalence of IoT-related cybercrimes, forensic investigators and researchers face numerous obstacles when attempting to recover evidence from a variety of different types of IoT smart devices. The primary challenge in performing forensic analysis on the IoT is the heterogeneity of IoT devices. Additionally, the bulk of IoT devices has flash memory or limited memory, which makes generating and converting evidence for presenting forensic data in court problematic. This review paper presents several forensic methodologies, techniques, and challenges in IoT device forensics, a comprehensive review of prominent recent works, with an overview of tools that are frequently used for performing digital forensics investigations. Additionally, a comparative analysis of three popular digital forensic tools is also conducted.
