Digital forensics is mostly used to
collect, identify, extract and analyze evidence from computers, hard
disks, mobiles, laptops and other digital devices. This technology is
implemented in civil and criminal court cases along with different
other private organizations for internal investigations. Moreover,
digital forensics has become a key asset in addressing employee
theft, particularly in banking, defense, and IT industries. In
addition, these devices are used for mobile data recovery and crimes
related to cloud computing. With the continuous advancements in
forensic technology, investigators are able to collect and analyze
clear and accurate data across multiple devices. The global digital
forensics market has been segmented on the basis of types and
industry uses. A cross sectional study of the global digital
forensics market across four major geographical segments has also
been covered under the purview of the report.
Importance of Digital Forensics Technology - http://bit.ly/2a3TWSi
Growing cyber crimes coupled with
rising safety concern have led to a rise in the implementation of
digital forensic tools in various industries. Digital forensic
technology plays an integral role in preventing internet related
crimes and misuse of company data. Moreover, cyber crime is
accelerating at an alarming rate and digital forensics acts as an
essential element that has the power to encumber the progress of such
criminals. Due to increasing security concerns across different
verticals, such as law enforcement, defense, banking, health care,
information technology, education, and logistics, among others, the
market for digital forensics is witnessing substantial growth
currently. In addition, due to rapid advancements in forensic
technology, such as the ability to recover complex data from
electronic devices, fingerprint recovery from metals, and DNA
profiling, prices of forensic tools have reduced, which in turn has
increased the affordability of forensic applications along with their
market penetration. Considering all these factors, the global digital
forensics market is expected to grow at a potential rate during the
forecast period from 2015 to 2021.
In the near future, with
developments in digital forensic research, digital forensic tools
would be further used in health care, education, transport, and other
application areas. Moreover, forensic tools would find potential
applications in mobile data recovery and crimes related to cloud
computing. This would lead to more efficient and better coordinated
detection, analysis, and presentation of data in courts of law. In
order to cater to the needs of digital forensics, companies are
coming up with new innovative products that can effectively collect,
preserve, analyze, and present evidence obtained from digital
sources. Furthermore, new players with advanced systems that come
with better reliability and accuracy are likely to emerge in the
market, in order to meet the challenging technical aspects along with
judicial and legal issues. However, rising complexity of mobile
devices and increasing snooping activities by government are some of
major factors inhibiting the growth of the global market for global
digital forensics.
