دراسة فعالية التحقيق الجنائي الرقمي في مواجهة الجرائم الإلكترونية

Abstract

Digital forensic investigations are essential in combating cybercrime, particularly in cases of hacking and extortion. This study highlights the effectiveness of modern tools and methodologies in digital forensics for recovering digital evidence and identifying perpetrators. Drawing on prior research conducted over the past nine years—such as the studies by Yusof and Othman (2019) and Chung et al. (2017)—this paper conducts a systematic literature review to identify critical gaps and emerging trends in digital forensics.

The findings underscore the significant role of digital forensic tools in enhancing evidence recovery and perpetrator identification, while addressing challenges noted by Zarin and Ullah (2020) and Alenezi et al. (2021). Consequently, sustained investment in digital forensic research and the development of robust legal frameworks are imperative, as emphasized by Azfar et al. (2016) and Iqbal et al. (2018).

This study recommends that future research expand the scope of inquiry into this field, examine its legal frameworks, and integrate emerging technologies. For digital investigators, fostering collaboration, providing continuous training, and establishing specialized centers are vital measures. Ultimately, the findings confirm that equipping digital forensic experts with these strategies and advanced technologies will significantly bolster their capacity to address challenges posed by cybercrime, thereby safeguarding individuals, organizations, and society at large.
