Maintaining detailed records of the evidence, including who had possession and any actions taken, is crucial in preserving the chain of custody. This ensures that evidence can be used in legal situations without being challenged due to tampering or mishandling. Other options do not pertain to legal proceedings or preserving the chain of custody directly, as they deal with analysis or are too general.
