<![CDATA[With the rapid development and higher level of dependence on new information and technology by various organizations across the world, cybercrime issues are increasing, and there are no technologies that seem flawless in combatting the issue. The use of concepts relating to digital forensic investigation of criminal activities and digital forensics will, therefore, tackle the problem with finding digital evidence in cybercrimes. OSForensics is one of the various digital forensic investigation tools that allows the use of Hash Sets for identifying known safe files in program and operating system files. The tool is essential for identifying suspected files like Trojans, viruses, and hacker scripts. The problem presented in this paper, therefore, entails utilizing combinations of digital forensic investigation of criminal activities and investigation concepts. The paper seeks to establish the effectiveness of OSForensic in Digital Forensic Investigation to curb cybercrime. That is, the capabilities of OSForensics and the accuracy of OSForensics with regards to retrieving and analyzing data from a hard drive in order to investigate and curb cybercrime at the workplace. The researcher investigated a case in which a company security had been threatened by an employee whose contract had recently been terminated. The company suspected that this employee had some serious pictures, locations, and employee details belong to company. The image of the employee’s personal flash was sent to the researcher to help initiate the investigation using OSForensicssoftware so as to establish any evidence that the employee still had pictures, locations, and employee details belong to company. In overall, OSForensic was able to identify company details that the employee was having. The research was able to identify sensitive information about the company that the suspect was having, including the names of the employees, images, company system structure and what seemed to be their respective identification numbers.]]>
