Abstract

Digital Forensic Investigation has seen a tremendous change in the past 25 years. From the age of early computers to the current day mobile devices and storage devices, the crime rate has also followed growth. With the diversity in crimes, frameworks have also been modified over time to cope-up with the pace of crimes being committed. The paper amalgamates all major approaches and models presented that have helped in shaping the digital forensic process. Each discussed model is followed by its advantages and shortcomings.
