Different cybercrimes have been identified with instances of ransomware, online scams, Denial of Service (DoS) and many more. Wherein in the present, a variety of solutions have also emerged to be able to combat cybercrime. In the Philippines, cybercrime has increased throughout the past few years with most of them being online scams. Digital forensics focuses on locating, acquiring, processing, analyzing, and reporting on electronically stored data. Its main goal is to extract data from different devices such as computers or smartphones, process it into actionable intelligence, and can then be used in the court of law. The researchers aim to know the effectiveness of digital forensics to fight cybercrime using the different emerging trends regarding digital forensics such as cloud, social media, IoT, and network forensics. For the Philippines, having sufficient infrastructure is a possible and rational solution since globally, technology keeps evolving and so do cyber-attacks and crimes. With this, one may be able to mitigate possible attacks and damages throughout the country.
