As a topic area, the need for the standardization of operational practices in digitalforensics has seen much discussion. There are clear benefits for d igital forensics ifits procedures can be harmonized including increasing the reliability of the workproduced by its practitioners, consistency of practice, and the potential for greaterquality control, however, attaining standardization is a difficult task, and furtherwork in this field is required. This work discusses the “standardization challenge”assessing both the need for standardization and the feasibility of achieving it. It issuggested that those actively contributing in this area should consider the develop-ment of models for defining operational practice which are offence-specific, device-specific and operating system-specific. To support this proposal, an example stan-dard is offered and discussed which suggests and documents the minimumexpected requirements for the examination of Windows 10 devices in cases involv-ing images depicting child sexual abus
