A
Answer to Question 2
This acronym stands for the Problem Exists Between the Chair And the Keyboard. One problem that plagues those who investigate high tech crimes is how we place blame on the human being who was using the computer at the time the crime was committed. In other words, we can trace the criminal activity back to a specific IP address or a specific computer, but how can we prove who was sitting at that computer at the time of the crime? In many cases we can only solve this problem by utilizing traditional investigative techniques such as interview, interrogation, the process of elimination, and alibi confirmation / destruction. One of the easiest ways to prove a specific person committed the act is to eliminate the possibility that anyone else could have been on that computer at that time.
