With the increase in the field of digital crime and data theft; the law enforcement agencies and investigators needs to have efficient tools scripts & methodologies to collect the required evidences and reproduce the data in understandable form. Network plays a vital role in communication process amongst the digital devices; where the data packets and requests are transferred. The main goal of the research is to extract and analyse digital evidences for network artefacts like IP addresses (Version 4 & 6), event & network log files of system, open source and proprietary tools/software/scripts, to help the law enforcement agencies and investigators with their investigation process in efficient manner and extract desired data. Here various open source tools and software are used to analyse and extract various evidences; moreover EnScript has been modified and redesigned to fetch relevant data. The results conclude with network related data set obtained from various networks.
