Computer forensic auditing is the process of collecting and analyzing digital evidence from electronic devices, such as computers, mobile phones, or tablets2. The purpose of computer forensic auditing is to investigate and resolve cases involving cybercrime, fraud, or other illegal or unethical activities3. One of the examples of computer forensic auditing is recovering deleted communications and emails, which can help to reveal the identity, motive, or modus operandi of the perpetrators or suspects4.
