A Case Study for an “Accountable” IoT Forensics

IoT (Internet of Things) promise great potentials but pose many concerns. Billions of devices connected in global networks exchanging enormous amounts of data, indeed, can be highly vulnerable. Accountability is a crucial feature to foster awareness and reduce risks at all levels, yet it is diffi cult to put in practice when it comes to evaluate digital evidences in an IoT environment. In this paper we propose a formula for assessing Quality of Information in IoT devices for forensics purposes. After a short theoretical overview, we describe our tool and provide an example in order to show how its adoption can increase the transparency in the discussion of digital evidences.
