CART's role is to discover information on computers. If the computer was connected to the internet, then information about the use of that computer on the internet may be found. We do work with internet service providers in connection with the execution of search warrants issued by a court. Good afternoon, for those of us that are not familiar with computer forensics or what a CF examiner might be called upon to do, could you tells us what computer forensics is and how you might utilize it. Computer forensics is the application of science and engineering to the problem of evidence stored on computers.
All computers are a combination of hardware, operating system, and software.
Computers store information as a result of their operation. Some of the information is intended to be stored by the user. Other information is stored by the computer itself. Yet other information is deleted by the user. It is the goal of the computer forensic examiner to recover as much information from the computer's storage media as possible.
