Digital forensic systems collect, filter, process, store and distribute data, to
facilitate the investigational-cum-organizational decision-making process, as
expected of any typical information system. These specialized systems are used to
establish and understand the specifics of electronic incidents, after which
information gathered could then be used to accurately identify and reprimand the
parties abusing such electronic infrastructures as well as to stop any similar future
incidents. However, due to the relative infancy of the digital forensic discipline as
a whole and a number of other contributory factors, these systems infringe on and
defy a lot of norms that have become acceptable to both individuals and
organizations. This paper seeks to highlight the open issues within the digital
forensic systems development and implementation area that border on ethics. The
study employed a method which collected secondary data from related
publications and analysed them to identify valid recurrent points.
Recommendations are subsequently provided to each of the issues identified, with
the aim of keeping the discipline’s stability and stakeholders’ expectations
balanced.
