"Digital forensics" is a subfield of forensic science that focuses on identifying, obtaining, processing, analyzing, and reporting material that is stored electronically. Electronic evidence is present in almost all criminal acts, and digital forensics assistance is critical to law enforcement investigations. Digital forensics collects electronic evidence from a variety of sources, such as computers, cellphones, remote storage, unmanned aerial systems, and shipborne devices. The usual method is to extract relevant intelligence from the electronic evidence, present the prosecution's findings, and then turn the information back into evidence.
