Digital forensics is an emerging research field involving critical technologies for obtaining evidence in digital crime investigations. Several methodologies, tools, and techniques have been developed to deal with the acquisition, preservation, examination, analysis, and presentation of digital evidence from different sources. However, new emerging infrastructures such as service-oriented architecture has brought new serious challenges for digital forensic research to ensure that evidence will be neutral, comprehensive, and reliable in such complex environment is a challenging research task. To address this issue, the authors propose in this article a generic conceptual model for digital forensics methodologies to enable their application in a service-oriented architecture. Challenges and requirements to construct a forensically sound evidence management framework for these environments are also discussed. Finally, the authors show how digital forensics standards and recommendations can be mapped to service-oriented architecture.

In this chapter, a Semantic Web services-based knowledge management framework that enables holistic knowledge management in organizations is presented. As the economy is becoming one single global marketplace, where the best offer wins, organizations have to search for competitive advantage within themselves. With the growing awareness that key potentials of an organization lie within its people and their knowledge, efficient knowledge management is becoming one of key focuses in organizational activities. The proposed knowledge management framework is based on Semantic Web technologies and service-oriented architecture, supporting the operational business processes as well as knowledge-based management of services in service-oriented architecture.

The use of firewall has been widespread in all the emerging technologies such as Service Oriented Architecture, web services, cloud computing and so on. The term security itself is the most important task that has to be maintained in the real-time applications. Policies are enrolled in the security of the firewall where the quality of policies is to be maintained. The network administrator defines the policy as a rule. Managing the firewall policies, maintaining the risk analysis and also the conflicting nature that arise in the network, lack of systematic analysis mechanisms and tools used are often error prone. The distributed firewall is used to overcome the shortcomings of the traditional firewall. In this paper we represent a set of techniques such as, rule-based segmentation technique to identify the policy anomalies and effectively derive the anomaly resolution. Grid-based visualization technique, provide the policy anomaly information in a grid form, which helps in identifying the policy conflicts and finally the techniques to resolve the conflicts and the redundancy that arise in a single- or multi-firewall environment. We also discuss about the implementation of the visualization-based firewall policy analysis tool called Firewall Anomaly Management Framework (FAME), where all the techniques are used in a single tool and an approach to resolve the anomalies in an effective and efficient way.

Original Information

Steganography is one of the anti-forensic techniques that allow criminals to hide information in other messages so that during the investigation, the investigator will experience problems and difficulty in getting evidence of original information on the crime. Therefore an investigator is required to have the ability to be able to find and extract (decoding) using the right tools when opening messages that have been inserted by steganography techniques. The purpose of this study is to analyze digital evidence using the static forensics method by applying the six stages to the Digital Forensics Research Workshop (DFRWS) framework and extracting steganography on files that have been compromised based on case scenarios involving digital crime. The tools used are FTK Imager, Autopsy, WinHex, Hiderman, and StegSpy. The results of extraction of 9 out of 10 files that were scanned by steganography files had 90% success and 10% of steganography files were not found, so it can be concluded that the extraction files in steganographic messages can be used as legal digital proofs according to law.

This chapter includes the evolution of cyber forensics from the 1980s to the current era. It was the era when computer forensics came into existence after a personal computer became a viable option for consumers. The formation of digital forensics is also discussed here. This chapter also includes the formation of cyber forensic investigation agencies. Cyber forensic life cycle and related phases are discussed in detail. Role of international organizations on computer evidence is discussed with the emphasize on Digital Forensic Research Workshop (DFRWS), Scientific Working Group on Digital Evidence (SWDGE), chief police officers' involvement. Authenticity-, accuracy-, and completeness-related pieces of evidence are also discussed. The most important thing that is discussed here is the cyber forensics data.

Facebook Messenger is a popular social media. The increasing number of Facebook Messenger users certainly has a positive and negative impact, one of the negative effects is being used for digital crime. One of the sciences to get digital evidence is to do Digital forensics. Digital forensics can be done on a smartphone used by criminals. This research will carry out as much evidence of digital crime as possible from Facebook Messenger. In this study the forensic devices, Magnet AXIOM and Oxygen Forensics Suite 2014 were used using the National Institute of Standards Technology (NIST) method. NIST has work guidelines for both policies and standards to ensure that each examiner follows the same workflow so that their work is documented and the results can be repeated and maintained. The results of the research in the Magnet AXIOM and Oxygen Forensics Suite 2014 get digital evidence in the form of accounts, conversation texts, and images. This study successfully demonstrated the results of an analysis of forensic devices and digital evidence on Facebook Messenger. The results of the performance evaluation of forensic tools in the acquisition process using AXIOM Magnets are considered the best compared to Oxygen Forensics Suite 2014.

With the introduction of services, systems become more flexible as new services can easily be composed out of existing services. Services are increasingly used in mission-critical systems and applications, and therefore, considering Quality of Service (QoS) properties is an essential part of the service selection. Quality prediction techniques support the service provider in determining possible QoS levels that can be guaranteed to a customer or in deriving the operation costs induced by a certain QoS level. In this chapter, we present an overview on our work on modeling service-oriented systems for performance prediction using the Palladio Component Model. The prediction builds upon a model of a service-based system, and evaluates this model in order to determine the expected service quality. The presented techniques allow for early quality prediction, without the need for the system being already deployed and operating. We present the integration of our prediction approach into an SLA management framework. The emerging trend to combine event-based communication and Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) into Event-based SOA (ESOA) induces new challenges to our approach, which are topic of a special subsection.

Digital crimes are taking place over the entire world. For any digital crime which commit at any part of world, computer or any electronic devices are used. The devices which are used to commit the crime are useful evidences which must be identified and protected for further use. The crimes involving electronic devices are called as cyber-crime. To investigate such crimes, a scientific procedures needs to be followed. The data collection, analysis, preservation and presentation of digital evidence is must in order investigate the cybercrime. This paper highlights the practices that are used worldwide in the investigation process of cyber-crime. Keywords: Digital Forensics, Analysis, Investigation, models of investigation.
