Abstract

This paper introduces modeling methodologies to computer forensics to provide formalism and structured approach to computer forensics activities. It studies how to use UML diagrams to model and visualize various aspects of a computer forensics system. It first applies UML to model the basic components of a computer forensic process and their relationships. It then uses UML to further visualize the activities carried out for each component. The formal graphical model provides a well-defined and straightforward semantics to the computer forensics process making it easier to understand by various parties involved.
