Digital forensics is a prominent sub-branch of forensic science, where shared investigative skills, scientific fundamentals and inferences are applied to digital evidence. Over 90% of crime is now recognised as having a digital element, meaning digital forensic science sits at the heart of delivering justice in the 21st century, spanning the entire criminal justice system from crime scene to courtroom. The application of digital forensics can be seen across many fields where technology is in operation, and subsequently involved in any alleged incident. Organisations are often required to have an incident response strategy in place and where an inquiry is needed, understanding the role that technology may have played requires those with digital forensic skills and knowledge. The forensic examination of digital devices and their data can now reveal important information that describes courses of conduct pertinent to any investigation.
