6、nce and Use3.1 The purpose of this practice is to describe techniquesand procedures for computer forensics in regard to evidencehandling, computers, digital imaging, and forensic analysis andexamination.3.2 The examiner should be trained in accordance withGuide E2678.3.3 Individuals not trained in p

7、roper digital evidence proce-dures should consult with an appropriate specialist beforeproceeding.3.4 When dealing with technology outside your area ofexpertise, consult with an appropriate specialist before pro-ceeding.4. Seizing Evidence4.1 General guidelines concerning the seizing of evidenceare:

8、4.1.1 Consult with the investigator or responsible party todetermine the necessary equipment to take to the scene.4.1.2 Review the legal authority to seize the evidence,ensuring any restrictions are noted. If necessary during theexecution of the seizure, obtain additional authority for evi-dence out

9、side the scope of the search.4.1.3 When it is impractical to remove the evidence fromthe scene, the evidence items shall be copied or imagedaccording to organizational policy.4.1.4 All suspects, witnesses, and bystanders shall be re-moved from the proximity of digital evidence to ensure theintegrity

10、 of potential evidence.4.1.5 Solicit information from potential suspects, witnesses,system administrators, and so forth, to ascertain knowledge ofthe systems to be seized (for example, password(s), operatingsystem(s), screen names, remote access users, and E-mailaddresses).4.1.6 The scene shall be s

11、earched systematically and thor-oughly for evidence. Searchers shall be trained to recognize thedifferent types of evidence. Check for additional media thatmay be attached to the computer system.5. Evidence Handling5.1 Document the scene, which can include: taking clear,detailed photographs (of the

12、computer screen, of the front andback of the computer, and of the area around the computer tobe seized) and making a sketch/notation of the computerconnections and surrounding area, or both.5.2 If the computer is turned off, DO NOT turn on thecomputer.1This practice is under the jurisdiction of ASTM

If present, appropriateforensic methods should be used to capture the unencryptedd

16、ata and any volatile data that would be lost if the computer ispowered down.5.2.2 Be aware that storage devices may not be physicallyconnected and a proper search for wireless devices must beconducted.5.2.3 Assess the power needs for devices with volatilememory and follow organizational policy for t

17、he handling ofthose devices.5.2.4 Document the condition of the evidence, includingany preexisting damage.5.2.5 Appropriately document the connection of the exter-nal components.5.3 Stand-Alone Computer (Non-Networked):5.3.1 Disconnect all power sources by unplugging from theback of the computer. Al

18、so, remove batteries from laptops.5.3.2 Place evidence tape over the power plug connector onthe back of the computer.5.4 Networked Computer:5.4.1 WorkstationsRemove the power connector from theback of the computer.5.4.2 Place evidence tape over the power plug connector onthe back of the computer.NOT

19、E 1Any network computer can be used for file sharing and thosesystems should follow normal shutdown procedures.5.5 Servers:5.5.1 Determine whether the network connection should bedisconnected after consulting with an individual trained inproper digital evidence procedures.5.5.2 A determination shall

20、 be made as to the extent of datathat should be seized.5.5.3 Capture volatile data if necessary.5.5.4 If shutdown is necessary, use the appropriate com-mands. (WarningPulling the plug could severely damagethe system, disrupt legitimate business, or create officer anddepartment liability, or combinat

21、ions thereof.)5.6 Each piece of evidence shall be protected from changeand a chain of custody maintained as determined by organiza-tional policy. Appropriate packaging of evidence can includeany of the following:5.6.1 Plastic/paper bags or sleeves;5.6.2 Computer case sealed with evidence tape over c

22、aseaccess points and power connector;5.6.3 Some devices may require power to maintain thevolatile memory and should be packaged appropriately; and5.6.4 Specific care shall be taken with the transportation ofdigital evidence material to avoid physical damage, vibration,and the effects of magnetic fie

23、lds, static electricity, and largevariations of temperature and humidity.6. Equipment Preparation6.1 “Equipment” in this section refers to the non-evidentiaryhardware and software the examiner uses to conduct theforensic imaging or analysis of the evidence.6.1.1 Equipment shall be monitored and docu

24、mented toensure proper performance is maintained.6.1.2 Only suitable and properly operating equipment shallbe used.6.1.3 The manufacturers operation manual and other rel-evant documentation for each piece of equipment shall beaccessible.6.1.4 Analysis/imaging software shall be validated beforeuse as
