Electronic evidence in cybercrime cases: Sec 65B Compliance

Proving Digital Crimes in Court\n\nIn cybercrime cases, the "original" evidence is often a server log or a cloud-stored file. Proving these in court requires strict adherence to legal standards.\n\n### The Section 65B Certificate\nAny electronic record produced as evidence must be accompanied by a certificate stating the source and integrity of the data. Without this, the evidence is inadmissible.\n\n### Hash Values and Forensics\nLegal professionals must understand hash values (digital fingerprints) to prove that evidence was not tampered with during the investigation.
