Abstract :
Cloud computing is changing the way we use mobile application by offering a powerful, scalable and on-demand computational resources to mobile users. However, this new paradigm is a challenging issue for forensic investigators since it combines two different environments. The adoption of Mobile Cloud computing solutions is increasing rapidly, so it is necessary for digital investigation applications and procedure to be adapted to this new environment. This paper provides an overview of mobile cloud forensics including challenging issues and some existing proposals in order to overcome these challenges.
