Explanation

This question maps directly to CHFI v11 objectives under Standards and Best Practices Related to Computer Forensics. ISO/IEC 27042 specifically addresses the analysis and interpretation of digital evidence, making it the most relevant standard in this scenario. CHFI v11 emphasizes that forensic analysis must be performed using well-defined, repeatable, and scientifically sound methodologies, and that investigators must be able to demonstrate their technical competence and analytical proficiency. ISO/IEC 27042 provides guidance on selecting appropriate analytical techniques, validating forensic tools, interpreting results correctly, and ensuring that conclusions are based on reliable and reproducible processes. It also stresses analyst competence, documentation, peer review, and the avoidance of bias--key factors in ensuring that forensic results are defensible in legal
