Digital and Network Forensics Quiz

What is digital forensics?

• The process of creating digital art

• The study of ancient digital technologies

• The practice of digital marketing

• The process of uncovering and interpreting electronic data for use in a court of law.

What are the main steps involved in digital forensics investigation?

• Identification, preservation, examination, analysis, and presentation

• Interviewing, interrogating, sentencing, documenting

• Collection, destruction, conclusion, reporting

• Observation, experimentation, hypothesis, conclusion

Explain the concept of network forensics.

• It is the process of analyzing social media networks.

• It is the process of designing network logos and branding.

• It is the process of creating new networks for businesses.

• It is the process of capturing, recording, and analyzing network traffic to identify security breaches and investigate cybercrimes.

What are the common tools used in digital forensics?

• Adobe Photoshop

• Forensic Toolkit (FTK), EnCase, Autopsy, Sleuth Kit

• Google Chrome

• Microsoft Office Suite

What is the role of chain of custody in digital forensics?

• It is used to encrypt digital evidence for security purposes.

• It has no role in digital forensics.

• It ensures the integrity and admissibility of digital evidence in court.

• It is only relevant for physical evidence, not digital.

What are the challenges faced in network forensics?

• Analyzing physical evidence

• Using outdated technology

• Identifying and analyzing network traffic, dealing with encrypted data, and keeping up with rapidly evolving technology

• Installing new software

Discuss the importance of data acquisition in digital forensics.

• Collecting digital evidence is not crucial for data acquisition

• Data acquisition is crucial for collecting and preserving digital evidence.

• Digital evidence can be preserved without data acquisition

• Data acquisition is not important in digital forensics

How does encryption impact digital and network forensics?

• Encryption only impacts physical forensics, not digital and network forensics

• Encryption can make it difficult for digital and network forensics experts to access and analyze data.

• Encryption has no impact on digital and network forensics

• Encryption makes it easier for digital and network forensics experts to access and analyze data

What is the difference between volatile and non-volatile data in digital forensics?

• Volatile data is permanent while non-volatile data is temporary.

• Volatile data is temporary and can be lost when a system is powered off, while non-volatile data is stored on hard drives and remains even after the system is powered off.

• There is no difference between volatile and non-volatile data.

• Volatile data is used in network forensics while non-volatile data is used in digital forensics.

What is the difference between live forensics and post-mortem forensics?

• Live forensics involves analyzing data that is active or in use, while post-mortem forensics involves analyzing data after a system has been shut down.

• Live forensics involves analyzing data after a system has been shut down, while post-mortem forensics involves analyzing data that is active or in use.

• There is no difference between live forensics and post-mortem forensics.

• Live forensics is used in network forensics while post-mortem forensics is used in digital forensics.
