The reliability of electronic evidence means the authenticity of electronic
data in court and playing a role in the judgments. In order to have the same
demonstrative function as traditional evidence, electronic evidence must
meet two main requirements: authentication, originality and nonrepudiation.
It is essential to keep data suitably in the seized phase to
achieve these requirements. The secure strategies for protection of the data
have been mentioned in clause (T), article 2 of the Electronic Commercial
Act and also article 40 of Cybercrimes Act, of which the most important is
biometric and encryption. The biometric technology receives and processes
the individuals’ data and allows to achieve the data only to whom his/her
data have been processed; hence, no one else can access the data. Also in
encryption, the data are protected by shuffling in a way that it can switch
such statement with only one confidential key and it remains illegible to a
person who does not access these data. In this way, the data are protected
from alternation and falsification and can be cited in such a secure way.
