Abstract

In today’s society where we live in a world of
constant connectivity, many people are now looking to cloud
services in order to store their files so they can have access to them
wherever they are. By using cloud services, users can access files
anywhere with an internet connection. However, while cloud
storage is convenient, it also presents security risks. From a
forensics perspective, the increasing popularity of cloud storage
platforms, makes investigation into such exploits much more
difficult, especially since many platforms such as mobile devices as
well as computers are able to use these services. This paper presents
investigation of hubiC as one of popular cloud platforms running
on Microsoft Windows 8.1. Remaining artefacts pertaining
different usage of hubiC namely upload, download, installation and
uninstallation on Microsoft Windows 8.1are presented.
