ANÁLISIS DE BRECHAS DEL PROCESO DE COMPUTACIÓN FORENSE EN ECUADOR RESPECTO A LAS BUENAS PRÁCTICAS INTERNACIONALES

Abstract

This article focuses on determining the level of maturity of the forensic computing process in Ecuador with respect to international good practices. For this purpose, based on the Delphi methodology, five computer experts qualified by the Judicial Council of Ecuador, experienced in forensic analysis cases and belonging to several cities of the country, were selected. Likewise, using the Science Design methodology, instruments were created that allowed gathering the information provided by the experts. Therefore, from the information analyzed it can be concluded that currently Ecuador is located at level two of maturity, the presentation stage being the highest score and the record management stage the lowest score, which indicates that within the process of forensic analysis executed in the country the procedures are being implemented, but still need to be documented and be in continuous improvement.
