Technological artifacts can be collected as evidence, used by investigators, or misused by suspects. The presented assignment is aligned with one of several topics covered in introduction to digital forensics, a required course for students either majoring or minoring in cybersecurity. The assignment consists of three different components: a technology component, a legal case study, and a research component. The assignment combines computing topics related to digital forensics with criminal justice topics that are related to actual legal cases with at least one piece of digital forensic evidence. The students will also research a topic related to the role of technology in a digital forensics investigation to expand their knowledge beyond the scope of the course.
