DIGITAL FORENSICS
Assessment
Assessment type: Digital Forensic Principles and Analysis (2000 words)
Purpose: The purpose of this assignment is to assess the students' knowledge on forensics analysis. Students need to write a report on this task. This assessment contributes to learning outcomes a and b.
Assessment topic: Principles of digital forensics and how machine learning can be used to enhance the digital forensics process
Task Details: Digital forensics is the practice of using scientific methods and technologies to identify, preserve analyse, and present digital evidence in a manner that is legally acceptable. In recent years, machine learning has become an increasingly important tool in digital forensics, as it can be used to automate and enhance various tasks in the digital forensics process.
For this assignment, you will be required to explore the role of machine learning in digital forensics and how it can be applied to a case scenario. You will need to demonstrate your understanding of the theories. techniques, and procedures of digital forensics and how machine learning can be used to enhance these processes. Additionally, you will be required to demonstrate your digital forensics skills on the analysis of applying machine learning techniques to a case study.
The criteria for this assignment are as follows:
• Understanding of digital forensics principles and the use of machine learning techniques: Students should demonstrate a clear understanding of machine learning and how it can be used to automate and enhance various tasks in the digital forensics process. This should include examples of how machine learning algorithms can be used to automate the analysis of data, classify digital evidence, and detect anomalies in data.
• Digital forensics skills: Students should demonstrate their digital forensics skills by analysing machine learning techniques on a scenario or case study. This should include the analysis of digital evidence, the determination of its relevance and authenticity, and the presentation of findings in a clear manner.
Overall, this assignment will require you to demonstrate your understanding of the principles of digital forensics and how machine learning can be used to enhance various tasks in the digital forensics process.
