Explanation
Computer Forensics is the discipline of applying scientific methods to identify, preserve, extract, analyze, and present digital evidence from computer storage media. It specifically focuses on data recovery and analysis from hard disks and other storage devices in a forensically sound manner (maintaining chain of custody and evidence integrity). Network Forensics (A) deals with network traffic and logs. Data Recovery (B) is a technical process but lacks the legal/investigative framework. Disaster Recovery (C) is about restoring systems after failures.
