For evidence to be admissible in legal or regulatory contexts, it must be accurate, verifiable, and properly maintained. This episode explores how digital evidence is collected in cloud environments, focusing on logging, time synchronization, and data integrity. Logs must be complete, tamper-resistant, and tied to reliable time sources so investigators can reconstruct events. Without consistent time synchronization, evidence can be challenged or rendered unusable.

The exam frequently includes scenarios where candidates must identify whether evidence is sufficient or how integrity should be ensured. By understanding digital evidence requirements, you’ll be prepared to demonstrate the role of cloud professionals in bridging technical practices with legal standards. Produced by BareMetalCyber.com.
