Explanation
This statement is TRUE. During first responder procedures at a digital crime scene, two critical obligations apply: (1) All applicable laws - including search and seizure laws, privacy laws, and chain of custody requirements - must be followed to ensure evidence remains legally admissible in court. (2) A qualified computer forensic examiner should be contacted as soon as possible to ensure proper evidence handling, preservation, and documentation from the earliest stage. Failure to follow legal procedures or delaying expert involvement can result in evidence being ruled inadmissible or permanently compromised.
