MUMBAI, India, Oct. 26 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202643123057 A) filed by Aditya University on October 14, 2026, for Adaptive Digital Evidence Acquisition Control System And Method Of Operation.
Inventors include Mr. Vilas Anil Chavan; Ms. Devaki Vilas Chavan; Dr. Devidas S. Bhagat; and Dr. Mahipal Singh Sankhla.
The application for the patent was published on October 23, 2026, under issue no. 43/2026.
Abstract: The present disclosure proposes an adaptive closed-loop digital evidence acquisition control system (100) and method for controlling acquisition of digital forensic evidence from dynamically changing distributed computing environments. The system (100) comprises a computing device (102) having a processor (104) and a memory (106) storing machine-readable instructions executable by the processor (104). The processor (104) executes a plurality of modules (108) for maintaining evidence topology, determining technical acquisition state, generating candidate acquisition operations, predicting technical effects, selecting and executing an acquisition operation, determining realized technical effects, modifying acquisition behaviour based on prediction error, updating evidence topology, and controlling subsequent acquisition operations. The system (100) supports deterministic rule-based control and may optionally employ statistical, Bayesian, machine-learning, reinforcement-learning, or graph-learning mechanisms. The system (100) modifies at least one acquisition-behaviour parameter based on the determined prediction error.
