Abstract

Electronic evidential data pertaining to a legal case, or a digital forensic investigation can be enormous given the extensive electronic data generation mechanisms of companies and users coupled with cheap storage alternatives. Working with such volumes of data can be tasking, sometimes requiring matured analytical processes and a degree of automation. Once electronic data is collected post eDiscovery hold or post forensic acquisition, it can be framed into datasets for analytical research. This paper focuses on data preprocessing of such evidentiary datasets outlining best practices and potential pitfalls prior to undertaking analytical experiments.
