Title: Methodology for Digital Forensic Investigation DFIP: A Contemporary Glace from Practical Point of View
Keywords: Abstract: Technical progress and the development of technologies is a prerequisite for the emergence of new digital tools and devices for committing digital crimes. Also, the violators are characterized with sophisticated behavioral patterns and the presence of increased technical knowledge. Often they take advantage of the victim without his/her even knowing about it to perform more complicated attacks. This leads to complexity of the crime scene, where both individual and interconnected digital evidences must be investigated, which in turn requires the application of appropriate investigative methods and procedures. The present paper comes to meet these new challenges by proposing a methodology for digital forensic investigation taking into account not only the background of contemporary theories, but also available practical problems. Thus, the methodology is called DFIP (Digital Forensic Investigation from Practical Point of View) with the aim to meet the modern technological level and practical considerations.
