Forensic Investigation, Challenges, and Issues of Cloud Data: A Systematic Literature Review

Cloud computing technology delivers services, resources, and computer systems over the internet, enabling the easy modification of resources. Each field has its challenges, and the challenges of data transfer in the cloud pose unique obstacles for forensic analysts, making it necessary for them to investigate and adjust the evolving landscape of cloud computing. This is where cloud forensics emerges as a critical component. Cloud forensics, a specialized field within digital forensics, focuses on uncovering evidence of exploitation, conducting thorough investigations, and presenting findings to law enforcement for legal action against perpetrators. This paper examines the primary challenges encountered in cloud forensics, reviews the relevant literature, and analyzes the strategies implemented to address these obstacles.
