Secure Blockchain Forensics for Social Media Investigations
ASMF - Ambient Social Media Forensics Chain of Custody with an Intelligent Digital Investigation Process Using Federated Learning
Tags: Universiti Malaya, Malaysia, Computing Technology
This technology introduces the ASMF framework, which enhances social media forensics by automating digital investigations through federated learning and blockchain technology. It secures the chain of custody for evidence collection, analysis, and validation in a decentralized environment, improving privacy protection and cybersecurity. The framework uses dual data transmission (on-chain and off-chain) and personalized search to identify local and global cyber threats. Applications include forensic investigations in complex social media and cyberspaces. The system is optimized for balancing distributed data and addressing cybersecurity challenges.
