Abstract

The era of digital technology has been rising steadily at a rapid rate. The development of new technologies and software paves way to cybercrimes which has been growing exponentially in recent years. To understand cybercrimes and to prevent it from happening forensic investigation is carried out. Linux forensic triage is in which a forensic investigator collects, assembles, analyses the evidence obtained from Linux machine. Linux operating system provide more secure services than other operating machines and hence investigators need to comb through every piece of information. This is a time consuming and excruciating process. This paper focuses on improving the efficiency of Linux forensics by performing forensic investigation with remote acquisition and collect all relevant information efficiently in much shorter time. The paper shows the forensic investigation carried out by forensic tool and as well as remote acquisition to highlight the differences which helps to show how efficiency has been improved.
