What do we mean by digital forensic?

Digital Forensics typically refers to the small pieces of data attached to files, documents, photos, etc. , in computers, cameras, cell phones, which describe the characteristics of the file. These include dates, document or photo size, GPS (location) data, last updated date, etc. The "art" of Digital Forensics in smart phones is currently a very popular one with law enforcement because experts can determine exactly what date and time a phone call or text message was placed, possibly validating or invalidating a suspect's alibi.

Digital forensics (sometimes known as digital forensic Science) is a branch of forensic Science encompassing the recovery and investigation of material found in digital devices, often in relation to computer crime. The term digital forensics was originally used as a synonym for computer forensics but has expanded to cover investigation of all devices capable of storing digital data. The most common application of Digital Forensics is to support or refute a hypothesis before criminal or civil courts. The typical forensic process encompasses the seizure, forensic imaging (acquisition) and analysis of digital media and the production of a report into collected evidence. Regards.
