- In this video,…we'll talk about different internet artifacts…that you might find during an investigation.…Several of the cyber crimes…that we discussed earlier,…like cyberstalking and cross-scripting,…require the use of the internet.…Every action a user performs in a browser,…leaves a trail.…The analysis of web browser artifacts,…can be very useful for a forensic investigator.…An example of this,…is saved browser settings,…like Bookmarks or favorite sites.…On a Windows system,…you can find a user's favorite website,…by opening up the Favorites folder…contained in their User folder.…
Now let's talk about…some of the important internet aritfacts…that you can look for.…First, there's the browser cache.…There's also internet databases,…and they're usually different…for different browsers.…There's also cookies and saved session data.…All of these different browser artifacts…are collected in different ways…on different browsers.…I recommend the next time…you sit down on a computer,…before you start browsing the web,…why don't you take a look…
