Haifa Ali Saeed Ali, J. Vakula Rani · 2023
The revolution of the Internet of Things (IoT) is increasing dramatically, where everything has become smart, and this new technology has helped facilitate plenty of things for humanity and made life easier in terms of applications and machines that think like humans using artificial intelligence. Currently, many applications of the Internet of Things affect our daily lives. Although the Internet of Things has brought us ease of life, it has brought many challenges related to security. However, solving these issues and challenges requires a high degree of skills. The approach that addresses the increment of cybercrimes is IoT Forensics. IoT forensics is a call for investigating and mitigating these cybercrimes. In this study, we overview the basics of IoT and present an illustrative study of digital forensics and IoT Forensics, then discussing that with some differences between IoT Forensics, Digital Forensics, and IoT Security, and an overview of the Process of IoT Forensics have been discussed. In addition, this work focuses on recent research work from 2018 onwards in terms of IoT Forensics models, frameworks, analysis, and use cases; finally, IoT and Digital Forensics Challenges and open issues have been discussed.
