Abstract
PRIETO CASTELLANOS, Bayron José. Use of Deductive and Inductive Methods to Increase the Efficiency in the Acquisition and Processing of Digital Evidence. Cuad. Contab. [online]. 2017, vol.18, n.46, pp.56-82. ISSN 0123-1472. https://doi.org/10.11144/javeriana.cc18-46.umdi.
This article aims to show how to apply the inductive and deductive research methods in the field of optimization of digital evidence processing. The inquiry is based on a scheme of structured information acquisition and is developed in order to increase the efficiency of the described processes in the context of the computer forensics practice. According to this, the author defines the abovementioned philosophical methods inasmuch they are useful in other fields of knolwedge, and then shows how to apply both mechanisms under the general frame E-Discovery for obtaining and analyzing digital evidence and in keeping with the APMaR process (Acquisition, Processing, Making available & Research), which will be also defined and developed in this study. Additionally, the author presents all those concepts through the lens of the regulations provided in the acts 527 from 1999 —the e-Commerce Act— and 906 from 2004 and the benchmark provided by the Regulatory Decree 1747 from 2000 and the standard ISO 27 001.
Keywords : E-Discovery; APMaR process; inductive and deductive research methods; data messages; digital evidence; evidentiary materials.
