Cybercrime and cyber threats go hand in hand. New malware strains and attack vectors are developed by cybercrime groups in order to receive monetary gains, damage the reputation, or conduct reconnaissance and data exfiltration for a nation-state. If a business whose assets and data suffered from adversary behavior files a lawsuit against the suspected entity, digital forensics will help bring evidence of the breach to the court. Forensic engineers are also capable of restoring data that was lost as a result of the attack.
