Audio Forensics: Overview

Audio forensics involves analysing audio recordings to extract information that can be used as evidence in legal proceedings. Audio forensics require various software tools and techniques to enhance audio recordings by removing background noise, filtering unwanted frequencies, and adjusting volume levels. It can be used in a variety of applications, including law enforcement investigations, civil litigation, and intellectual property disputes.

Audio authentication is used to determine the authenticity of audio recordings by analysing the frequency response, background noise, and other factors to determine whether a recording has been edited or altered. Speaker identification is done to identify the speaker or speakers in an audio recording by comparing the voice to known samples or analysing unique characteristics of the voice. Finally, audio forensic analysts can provide expert testimony in court cases by presenting their findings and opinions on the authenticity, accuracy, and reliability of audio recordings as evidence. Overall, audio forensics is a valuable tool in criminal investigations and legal proceedings, with audio forensic analysts playing a critical role in analysing and interpreting audio recordings.

Audio Forensics Challenges:

Compression and Alteration

Compression and Alteration

Audio recordings may be compressed or otherwise altered, affecting the quality and authenticity of the recording, and making it difficult to identify any potential tampering or manipulation.

Multiple Speakers

Multiple Speakers

Audio recordings may feature multiple speakers, making it challenging to isolate and identify individual voices, especially if there is overlap or crosstalk.

Limited Source Material

Limited Source Material

There may be limited source material available for analysis, making it difficult to draw definitive conclusions.
