Database Forensics is an important topic that has received hardly any research attention. This paper starts from the premise that this lack of research is due to the inherent complexity of databases that are not fully understood in a forensic context yet. The paper considers the relevant differences between file systems and databases and then transfers concepts of File System Forensics to Database Forensics. It is found that databases are inherently multidimensional from a forensic perspective. A notation is introduced to express the meaning of various possible forensic queries within this multidimensional context. It is posited that this notation, with the multidimensional nature of databases as described, forms a map for possible Database Forensics research projects. |
