Understand and Document the Chain of Custody Process for Digital Evidence Handling

Business Scenario

Welcome!

You are a Digital Forensics Investigator at CyberSecure Solutions. A company's finance department reports that confidential financial records have been leaked. A laptop and a USB drive belonging to a suspected employee have been seized for investigation. Before any forensic analysis begins, you must properly document, label, collect, transfer, and store the evidence while maintaining a complete Chain of Custody (CoC) record.

Pre-Lab Preparation

Your responsibility is to ensure that every person who handles the evidence is recorded so that the evidence remains authentic, traceable, and legally admissible in court.

Topic : Evidence Handling and Preservation

1) Evidence collection and preservation

2) Chain of custody principles

Task 1: Identify and Label the Evidence

Identify the evidence and assign a unique evidence ID before collection.

Observe the digital device provided by the instructor

1

Identify the type of device (USB Drive, Hard Disk, Laptop, etc.)

2

Assign a unique Evidence ID (Example: EV-001)

3

Attach an evidence label to the device

4

Task 2: Complete the Evidence Collection Form

Document all details of the collected evidence.

Record:

b

To Whom

c

Reason for Transfer

d

Task 4: Demonstrate Evidence Transfer

Understand how evidence is transferred between authorized personnel.

Obtain signatures from both individuals

3

Expected Output :- 

The digital evidence is uniquely identified and properly labeled.

Task 1: Understanding BRD

Before you start building anything, you need to clearly understand what the client actually wants.So, let’s begin by understanding the BRD (Business Requirement Document) shared by the client.

BRD Full Form is Business Requirement Details.BRD like a plan for building a house. This plan helps the builder understand what to build.In the same way,BRD tells developers what the client wants to build

Click to download BRD : BiteBox_BRD.pdf

Activity

After going through BRD list down the Core Features and  Web Pages in the tabulated Format as shown Below.

Col 1Col 2Col 3
Row 1
Row 2
Row 3

Formula

Profit = Revenue - Cost

Task 2: Create WireFrame

Now that you understand the requirements, don’t jump into coding yet. Before development, we always visualize the layout.

Now lets  create a simple wireframe for the homepage.

A wireframe is like a layout plan of a house. Before building, you decide where rooms, doors, and windows will be placed.Similarly, a wireframe helps you plan where elements like headers, images, and buttons will appear on a webpage—before adding design or colours.

Task 3: Code Editor Installation

Good work on completing the planning phase.

Now we will start development. Before that, make sure your system is ready with the required tools.

In this step we will install the VS code editor that will help to Write code efficiently,Organize files , Run and test your application

Go to the visual studio code official website

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        int x = 10;
        int y = 20;
        int sum = x + y;
        
        System.out.println("The sum is: " + sum);
    }
}

public class MathSample {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        int x = 10;
        int y = 20;
        int sum = x + y;
        
        System.out.println("The sum is: " + sum);
    }
}
