Today’s Golden Age of computer forensics is quickly coming to an end. Without a clear strategy for enabling research efforts that build upon one another, forensic research will fall behind the market, tools will become increasingly obsolete, and law enforcement, military and other users of computer forensics products will be unable to rely on the…

Homologous files share identical sets of bits in the same order. Because such files are not completely identical, traditional techniques such as cryptographic hashing cannot be used to identify them. This paper introduces a new technique for constructing hash signatures by combining a number of traditional hashes whose boundaries are determined by the context of…
Android OS experiences a blazing popularity since the last few years. This predominant platform has established itself not only in the mobile world but also in the Internet of Things (IoT) devices. This popularity, however, comes at the expense of security, as it has become a tempting target of malicious apps. Hence, there is an…
Progress in computer forensics research has been limited by the lack of a standardized data sets—corpora—that are available for research purposes. We explain why corpora are needed to further forensic research, present a taxonomy for describing corpora, and announce the availability of several forensic data sets.
