ABSTRACT: This
summary paper will discuss the concept of forensic evidence and evidence
collection methods. Emphasis will be placed on the techniques used to collect
forensically sound digital evidence for the purpose of introduction to digital
forensics. This discussion will thereafter result in identifying and
categorizing the different types of digital forensics evidence and a clear procedure
for how to collect forensically sound digital evidence. This paper will further
discuss the creation of awareness and promote the idea that competent practice
of computer forensics collection is important for admissibility in court.
