Description
This is an impartial, pedagogically written manual for the lawful handling of digital evidence under Philippine law, a procedural reference written to a standard that will withstand scrutiny in court, and it follows the evidence from the first recognition of a device through its identification, collection, preservation, examination, analysis, presentation, and final disposition. It carries one method across the full range of digital sources a practitioner now meets, from mobile devices and online accounts to drones, vehicles, and artificial-intelligence systems, and it harmonizes the treatment with the Philippine statutes, rules of court, and Supreme Court jurisprudence that govern admissibility, together with the international standards and cooperation frameworks the field relies on.
