This chapter provides prerequisites associated with cyber crimes, cyber forensics, and law enforcement. It consists of a brief introduction to the definition of cyber crimes, its classification, challenges associated with it and how it evolved with time, impact on the society, cyber terrorism, and the extent of problem scalability along with focusing on law enforcement aspects associated with the tracking and the prevention from such type crimes. The aspects discussed here include various cyber laws and law enforcement techniques introduced by various countries throughout the world which helps them to fight against cyber crimes. The cyber laws discussed include Australian, Canadian, United States, United Kingdom, and Indian law. This chapter also deals with the digital/cyber forensics, what does digital/cyber forensics mean, its types, and laws/rules revolving around them, like how to collect evidence, jurisdictions, and e-discovery.

Live Forensics

There are many freeware and commercial tools which can be used to provide forensics information based on dead and live forensics acquisition. The main problem with these tools is that in many cases the investigator cannot explain the script functionality and generated results and information during the trial. Because of this reason there is an increased need for developing and using script which can be easy explained and adapted to any analysis which should be made by the examiners. The chapter presents a novel developed First Responder script which can be used to perform a live and dead forensics analysis in support of Law Enforcement during the investigation process.

The article is devoted to the issues of the scientific and technical support of investigative activity. It is emphasized that nowadays fighting cybercrime determines the necessity to develop and implement the scientific and technical means, techniques and methods, as well as apply them to the activity of law enforcement agencies for prevention and investigation of crimes in the field of information and telecommunication technologies. The focus is placed on the fact that the retrieval, recording and investigation of electronic (digital) information in the pretrial investigation and its further use as evidence remain among the pressing and, at the same time, unexplored issues. It was stated that digital forensics is an integral and necessary tool in fighting cybercrime which is used for the identification, preservation, recovery, analysis, and presentation of digital evidence. The conclusion was made that with the spread of cybercrime in the modern world one of the priority directions of scientific and technical support of investigative activity is introduction of the latest means, methods and technologies of electronic intelligence into the work with electronic evidence and also protection of the sources of electronic (digital) information

This chapter introduces the field of digital forensics. It is intended as an overview to permit the reader to understand the concepts and to be able to procure the appropriate assistance should the need for digital forensics expertise arise. Digital forensics is the application of scientific techniques of discovery and exploitation to the problem of finding, verifying, preserving, and exploiting digital evidence for use in a court of law. It involves the use of hardware and software for finding evidence of criminal activity on digital media, either in a computer or in a network device, and attributing that evidence to a suspect for the purposes of conviction. Digital forensics can also be used for non-law enforcement purposes. Data recovery is a form of computer forensics used outside of the legal arena. The authors hope that the reader will understand some of the intricacies of digital forensics and be able to intelligently respond to incidents requiring a digital forensic response.

Abstract Identification is a primary need of societies. It is even more central in law enforcement. In the history of crime, a dialectics takes place between felonious attempts at concealing, disguising, or forging identities and societal efforts at unmasking the impostures. Semiotics offers specialistic skills at studying the signs of societal detection and identification, including those of forensics and criminology. In human history, no sign more than the face is attached a value of personal identity. Yet, modern forensics realizes that the face can mislead and, inspired by eastern models (China, Japan, India), adopts fingerprinting. In the digital era, however, fingerprinting first goes digital, then it is increasingly replaced by facial recognition. The face is back in digital AI forensics, together with a tangle of sociocultural biases. Semiotics can play a key role in studying their surreptitious influence.

New Challenges

Every field of our life is influenced by the appearance of new technologies. This means that new challenges keep being met and finding solutions, developing methods to deal with them belong to our tasks. Law enforcement has to be always ready to adopt the achievements of any disciplines. Experts and professionals in any field should be aware of applicability of the knowledge they have that is why it is important to highlight as much fields where our knowledge can be used as we can. Digital forensics differs from traditional forensics in many aspects that is why a general GIS professional can be involved into an investigation easily. This paper aims to provide methods to geovisualize information containing or referring to location data. Cost effective solutions are preferred throughout the paper.
