U3 Devices and It’s Influence on Forensic Analysis

Mrunal Abhijeet Deshmukh, Sunanda K. Kapde

Abstract


crime, we sometimes need to collect, identify, and report evidence left behind at a crime scene, and to find evidence, forensic analysis is essential. Forensic analysis is the process of collecting, investigating, identifying, and presenting evidence in court. For that, we just need a good device that can help us to store evidence, transfer evidence or find evidence of any browsing history and so on. U3 is a gadget that allows us to copyright-free transfer files, data, programmes, and even entire applications from one PC to another. U3 is made up of electronic components, therefore it is one of the electronic devices. Electronic device are the components that control the flow of electrons. And today we all need various types of electronic devices as they do our work easily and fast. Electronic devices which help in our daily life are computers, laptops, mobile, u3, tablets, fridge, AC, etc. So, in this article, we will see what is u3, its features, limitations, its impact, and how u3 will help us in the field of forensic analysis, what is forensic analysis, the challenges faced during forensic analysis, the phases involved in forensic analysis, the purpose of forensic analysis, the importance of forensic analysis, we are going to see the importance of electronic devices in our lives, and importance of the forensic field in our life, the future scope of u3 in forensic analysis
