Computer forensics is the practice of collecting, preserving, and analyzing digital evidence from computers, phones, and networks for use in criminal investigations, corporate disputes, or cybersecurity incident response. Forensic analysts recover deleted files, trace unauthorized access, and reconstruct digital timelines while maintaining a chain of custody suitable for legal proceedings. It's used by law enforcement, government agencies, and private-sector security firms investigating fraud, hacking, or data breaches.
