Like Sherlock Holmes ... How Does Digital Forensics Track Corona Virus?
In their attempt to solve crime cases, digital forensic investigators in the public and private sectors use various methods and tools to identify, collect, and analyze data obtained from digital devices such as mobile phones. How can these methods be used to track the new Corona virus "Covid-19"?
The Corona virus - which first appeared in Wuhan, China in December - killed more than 2,800 people, infected more than 85,000, and the World Health Organization officially declared a global health emergency.
By analyzing the telephone records of people with diseases such as the Corona virus, digital forensics can determine the geographical areas of potential infection and outbreak. The best example of this is Steve Walsh.
Steve Walsh is the man who caused 11 cases in the UK of Coronavirus, identified by using telephone records analysis.
The 53-year-old has been described as a "great distributor", carrying the virus at a business conference in Singapore before a ski holiday in the French Alps on January 24.
Walsh returned to the UK four days later, and was diagnosed on February 6 in Brighton.
