Computer
forensics preserves, identifies, and extracts the emails, documents,
or internet activity of a computer user. The intriguing element is
that much of the evidence is often transparently created by the
computer's operating system without the knowledge of a typical
user. Special software tools and techniques are used to recover the
“lost” data.
