Abstract

The rapid rise of cybercrime, fueled by increased reliance on digital systems, underscores the importance of effective digital forensics. This research investigates forensic artifacts within two widely used operating systems, Windows and Linux, to offer a detailed comparison of their impact on forensic practices. Digital forensic artifacts, such as user activity logs, system logs, application data, and volatile memory artifacts, are key sources of evidence that investigators rely on to reconstruct events, identify threats, and secure convictions in cybercrime cases.
