Özet

People's communication with machines is evolving. The process that started with the buttons has evolved to the touchscreen and now people can command to machines just talking with them. The use of smart home assistants, which allows people to control their smart homes, access mail accounts and even order, is becoming increasingly popular. For this reason, it is possible that they will be found at crime scenes soon and carry the value of digital evidence. In this study, the best-selling products Alexa Echo and Google Home were examined in terms of forensic evidence and the data containing digital evidence were found. Then fake activities were created by changing device name, creating fake routine creation and custom skill development. As a result of the investigations, for the cyber security experts or academics working in this field the information was provided about which kind of digital evidence could be found in smart home assistant's activities. Also, difference between real activity and fake activity were elicited against anti-forensic.
