ONTOLOGICAL MODELING OF INFORMATION DATA OF DIGITAL CRIMINAL CRIME

In the article, an ontological model of information data of a digital criminal offense is formed and researched. Ontological modeling made it possible to conceptualize knowledge and effectively overcome the problems of insufficient structure, ambiguity and inconsistency of data and knowledge in the field of digital forensics.

Of the selected seven relationships between entities, only three are entered into the ontology by
