This must be made for a computer forensics investigation:
Choose or take a picture with your camera, use Autopsy to analyze metadata that could be used in court. List three metadata items you found. Explain how would each be useful as evidence in a case.
Metadata is simply information about computer files and related records. Consider, for example, a Microsoft Word document on your computer.
Here you can find the creation date of the document then accessed date of that document and if it is an image then you will find geological co-ordinates as well to find the location on google map.
At what time that image has been taken, if GPS is on then its co-ordinates are also mentioned in the metadata to prove lawyer at that time victim was there or criminal was there.
For image
1) Creation Date
2) Geo location
3) Time of that picture taken.
