Abstract

The chapter begins by defining cybercrime and discussing the pivotal role of digital evidence in criminal investigations. It distinguishes between cyber-dependent crimes, which rely on computers to commit offenses, and cyber-enabled crimes, which use the internet to facilitate traditional crimes. The authors highlight the importance of understanding these categories for forensic experts to effectively investigate and gather evidence. Notably, the chapter emphasizes that digital evidence is present in almost all crimes, whether committed online or offline, making it a crucial aspect of modern investigations.
