Abstract

Computers have become an indispensable element of our everyday life. We now work in a different method as a result of them. As a result, cybercrime is rapidly expanding. Criminals have realised that to continue their illicit activities, they must stay current with the times. Phishing is an example of a common form of cybercrime. As a result, it's crucial to figure out exactly what happened. The ability to expose is known as "cyber forensics." Cyber Penetrators have become more proficient in their tools and techniques, putting the worldwide phenomenon's activities in jeopardy. Antiforensic tactics are also being used by these attackers to conceal evidence of a cybercrime. During an investigation, computer forensic professionals collect and analyse potential evidence, such as data that has been deleted, encrypted, or destroyed. Digital forensics has unearthed crucial data that will enable cybersecurity firms to design technologies that will prevent hackers from gaining access to a network, website, or device. Hackers and hijackers are adept at breaking into a person's or company's device or network, but digital forensics has gathered information. Any steps made during this process are documented, and procedures are employed to ensure that the evidence is not tampered with, damaged, or destroyed. Cyber forensics technologies must become more resilient to combat these advanced persistent threats. This review paper looks at the basics of cyber forensics, the several phases of cyber forensics, useful tools, and emerging research trends in this fascinating field.
