Scene of the Cybercrime: Computer Forensics Handbook

This book is a bridge between two distinct cultures; that of IT
professionals responsible for building systems that prevent cybercrime, and
law enforcement officials responsible for investigating and prosecuting
those crimes. It introduces IT professionals to the highly structured world
of law enforcement, where rules of evidence must be followed closely and
crime scenes must not be contaminated. It provides law enforcement officers
with an understanding of the technical aspects of cybercrime and of how
technology can be used to help solve crimes that have been committed.
