Summary
Utilizing best practices goes beyond the requirements of court, case law, and rules of
evidence. Best practices provide us with standard operating procedures in your work-
flow to maintain the integrity of your images and procedures. By maintaining a digital
negative, only working on copies of the original, using only valid forensic procedures,
and maintaining an audit trail for any nonstandard enhancements or analysis, you can
be assured that you have done the due diligence needed in forensics.
