Advances in the application of Ontologies in the area of Digital Forensic Electronic Mail
This article presents a descriptive review of the research published in the last five years to identify areas of unavailability in the study of Digital Forensics problems. Particularly, it is important to define the state of the art related to the application of ontologies, especially in the forensics of emails. The following objectives of the review are proposed: identify and study the most up to date research contributions on Ontologies and Digital Forensics; establish the gaps in current research reltated with the application of Ontologies to Digital Forensics; and correlate these works from attributes of proximity (or distance) with the application of ontologies to the forensic analysis of emails. In addition, a systematic method is defined to select the research works that are considered of interest for this review. It is expected that it will lead to the identification of gaps in the investigation of characteristic problems in digital forensic analysis, and the definition of an updated theoretical framework linked to the forensic analysis of emails with the application of ontologies.
