B. Digital evidence helps legal teams and the court develop reliable hypotheses or theories as to the committer of the crime or threat actor.
C. The reliability of the digital evidence is vital to supporting or refuting any hypothesis put forward, including the attribution of threat actors.
D. The reliability of the digital evidence is not as important as someone’s testimony to supporting or refuting any hypothesis put forward, including the attribution of threat actors.
The correct answer is D: as the question is asking which answer is (not) true
Answer is (D)
Straight from the CCNA OCG:
Digital forensics evidence provides implications and extrapolations that may
assist in proving some key fact of the case. Such evidence helps legal teams
and the court develop reliable hypotheses or theories as to the committer of the
crime (threat actor). The reliability of the evidence is vital to supporting or
refuting any hypothesis put forward, including the attribution of threat actors.
The OCG “DIKTA Quiz” is incorrect, based in its’ own information.
If you notice, the OCG states the correct answer is D, which is correct, but then has the incorrect explanation.
