Mapping digital forensic application requirement specification to an international standard

Abstract

A potential security incident may go unsolved if standardized forensic approaches are not applied during lawful investigations. This paper highlights the importance of mapping the digital forensic application requirement specification to an international standard, precisely ISO/IEC 27043. The outcome of this work is projected to contribute to the problem of secure DF tool creation, and in the process address Software Requirements Specification (SRS) as a process of digital evidence admissibility.
