Abstract

Cloud computing as a paradigm shift is transforming how services are being delivered. In this chapter, the authors present a Forensics as a Service (FaaS) model using cloud computing to deliver forensic services. This model leverages the flexibility, elasticity, and dynamics of cloud computing, and is affordable for business, government, or individuals in need, due to its reduced cost. It also addresses the challenge of processing a large volume of forensic data by using MapReduce and distributed computing.
