Abstract
Cybersecurity and protection of digital data has never been more important than it is currently. With the myriad tools available for not only obtaining the personal information of others, but also modifying it once it has been obtained, maintaining chain of evidence for digital evidence types is extremely difficult. From the months of December 2018 to March 2019 we have attempted to solve this problem. At the behest of Mr. Bob Rapp and the CWU Computer Science Department we have, for our Senior Capstone Project, developed an iPhone application with the sole intention of preserving chain of evidence for video recordings to be used by law enforcement. Through two-layer end to end encryption at the time of recording, limiting access to decryption keys, and the use of blockchain technology, we implemented this application. In our presentation, we will demonstrate the functionality of this application and provide additional information on its development and potential uses.
