Digital Forensics Process written is incomplete see published article for full explanation

“The application of computer science and investigative procedures for a legal purpose involving the analysis of digital evidence after proper search authority, chain of custody, validation with mathematics, use of validated tools, repeatability, reporting, and possible expert presentation.”

Given this definition, this scientific process contains the following eight steps:

- Search authority - Chain of custody - Imaging/hashing function - Validated tools - Analysis - Repeatability (Quality Assurance) - Reporting - Possible expert presentation

Conflict of interest editing

A recent edit was made by a person who appears to have a conflict of interest. I have reverted this change without prejudice for them being restored by an editor who does to have a real or apparent conflict of interest. I have also advertised this edit and revert and a related set of edits and reverts to WikiProject Computing. WikiProject Computer Security is a more logical choice but it's talk page was too quiet. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs)/(e-mail) 19:28, 16 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Seems a lot like hockum to me; such processes would be torn apart in any decent court. I should really look back at these articles at some point. Thanks for catching this David! --Errant (chat!) 14:39, 17 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Looking throuhgh; the paper actually is useful for the literature review. However I'd prefer to see it journalled before using it directly. And as to the ADAM process, I think that needs other sources to make note of it, especially as a new process, before we can cover it as significant. --Errant (chat!) 14:50, 17 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
