Abstract
With the advent of computers, there came computer-related crimes; hence, there comes the need for cybercrime judicial proceedings. And for any trial, evidence plays an instrumental role in bringing the victim to justice. So, there is a need for digital evidence. Digital crime evidence forms a core for the field of computer forensics. Breaking down the term digital crime evidence to be understood in simple words, it is the collection of data and information that plays a crucial role in digital crime investigation and that is usually stored and transmitted in electronic formats. Digital evidence is defined as any data stored or transmitted using a computer that supports or refute a theory of how an offense occurred or that address critical elements of the offense such as intent or alibi. This data is commonly a combination of text, audio, images, and videos. This evidence is generally invisible, fragile, time-sensitive, and integrity will be lost if they are mishandled.
