Abstract: The objective of digital forensics is to follow the standardized investigation process while documenting any evidence that is stored digitally which may indicate to the person responsible for the crime. The investigators use various techniques and forensic applications to search hidden folders, retrieve deleted data, decrypt the data or restore damaged files etc. Nowadays, Cybercrimes are going on at a huge scope, and have huge dangers to the security of an individual, firm, industry and even to created nations. At long last the paper suggests the need of preparing programs for the person on call and judgment of mark based picture validation. This study aims to develop and evaluate a technology-enabled and legally defensible framework for the investigation of cybercrimes involving cloud computing environments. The research focuses on the challenges of identifying, acquiring, preserving, analysing, and presenting cloud-based digital evidence in a manner that ensures integrity, authenticity, reliability, traceability, and legal admissibility. A systematic review of contemporary literature, forensic standards, judicial developments, and applicable legal frameworks will be undertaken to identify emerging challenges and opportunities in cloud forensics.
