Cybercrimes, Law, and Cyber Forensics: Comparative Study of Indian, British, and American Contexts

New forms of crime have emerged with the rising prevalence of computer misuse. Some of them include the use of cutting-edge tools and methods for criminal conspiracy. From spreading fraud through email to stealing and reselling intellectual property, cybercrime covers a lot of ground. The domain of computer science known as "cyber forensics" is considered to be among the most essential subfields. It is concerned with the investigation of cybercrime. The concept of cyber forensics is broken down into its parts by the author in this paper. This paper focuses on the significance of the topic as well as some of the methods and instruments that are used by cyber forensic investigators. The objective of cyber forensics is to conduct an examination of electronic content in a manner that is forensically sound with the goals of preserving, recovering, analyzing, identifying, and presenting facts and views about digital information. Cyber forensics evidence undergoes the same processes as other digital evidence and serves as supporting evidence in judicial proceedings. Cyber forensics is often linked to the investigation of cybercrime, but it may also be utilized in legal actions involving private parties. This paper demonstrates the necessity for further investigation into how cyber forensics might be used to enhance the identification of cybercrime. This research will help fill in some of the gaps in our knowledge of how cyber forensics investigations are conducted in India and explore cyber security policy in the United Kingdom, the United States, and India to identify both similarities and differences.
