Proxy Re-Encryption based approach for Digital Evidence Management in Cybercrime Investigation - A Review

Abstract

Cybercrime is on the rise as the digital world continues to expand. Gathering legitimate evidence is what digital forensics is all about. In a legal context, such proof is essential since it demonstrates the victim's crime beyond a reasonable doubt. It is crucial to keep evidence using a good evidence management system to ensure its admissibility in court during trials. We suggest a proxy re-encryption system that only works in one way for delegating power. The suggested approach will provide the safe delegation of access to electronic evidence. Proxy re-encryption as a means of incorporating access control into a secure evidence management solution is validated by the re-encryption scheme's enhanced sense of security. Within this study, we compare and contrast the many different systems that have been presented over the years. Future proposals for improved evidence handling could benefit from this investigation.
