Computer Hacking Forensic Investigator (CHFI v10) — Question 44

You have used a newly released forensic investigation tool, which doesn't meet the Daubert Test, during a case. The case has ended-up in court. What argument could the defense make to weaken your case?

Answer options

• A. The tool hasn't been tested by the International Standards Organization (ISO)
• B. Only the local law enforcement should use the tool
• C. The total has not been reviewed and accepted by your peers
• D. You are not certified for using the tool

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because it highlights that the tool's validity has not been peer-reviewed, which is essential for its acceptance in court. Options A and D are irrelevant to the Daubert Test's criteria, and option B does not affect the admissibility of the evidence presented in court.
