Which procedure ensures that evidence remains admissible in a court of law by documenting its handling from collection to presentation?
Chain of custody
Evidence preservation
Security audit
Digital forensics
Chain of custody refers to the process of documenting the handling of evidence from its collection to its presentation in court. This documentation ensures that the evidence has not been tampered with and remains admissible in legal proceedings. Without a proper chain of custody, evidence may be challenged as unreliable or inadmissible. Digital forensics, while a related term, refers broadly to the field of collecting and analyzing digital evidence, and evidence preservation focuses on maintaining the state of evidence but doesn't encompass the detailed tracking aspect.
