IOT DEVICES UNDER DIGITAL FORENSIC ANALYSIS
International Research Journal of Modernization in Engineering Technology and Science · 2023
The Internet of Things (IoT) is a rapidly expanding network of interconnected devices, which has brought numerous benefits to various domains.The fact that IoT devices are consistently connected to mobile and other computing devices via the internet has given rise to the development of sophisticated malwares that target not only IoT devices but also the computing devices connected to them.Digital devices are more likely to be relevant to a criminal investigation or civil lawsuit as a result of technology's increasing pervasiveness in modern life.This has led to a surge in investigations that require digital forensic expertise, resulting in law enforcement agencies worldwide grappling with huge backlogs of digital evidence.The sheer scale and rapid expansion of the IoT ecosystem make digital forensic investigations even more challenging, globally.In order to counter the increasingly sophisticated malware infecting IoT devices, this study suggests an overview of IoT devices under the context of digital forensics, emphasizing the need for IoT forensics, cutting-edge research, recent studies, potential, and essential conditions for a successful IoT forensics.Problems raised in the IoT forensics along with potential remedies.
