During training and discussions of real application of forensic tools we often talk with people who are not police forensics but working in other fields of law enforcement. Digital forensic training is always oriented on tools and digital evidence less on procedures and applications of digital forensic in other areas.
If you are in police or any other first line law enforcement agency you have whole legal and procedural setup how to apply digital forensics, but what if you a from revenue or competition enforcement or auditing ?
It is a big chance to be in situation that you'll have to adopt / apply methods and procedures from other close fields, especially for something relatively new like digital forensics.
During our long trainings in the momnet when people get hang of the forensic tool and start to think how to use it, I often talk about International Competition Network. http://www.internationalcompetitionnetwork.org/. It is a very good source to look for procedural blueprints and ideas how to incorporate digital forensic into everyday legal work.
I always stress the Anti Cartel Enforcement Manual as something worth of reading with good thought about. It describes scenario which is applicable to most of non-police organisations with great detail. After having such source discussed it is much easier to give realistic estimates how and what to do with your forensic tool during real investigation. There are also some hidden advantages in using International Competition Network, most of the countries already have national competition enforcement organisation, someone is there who already has been trying to use this suggested procedures in local legal environment.
