In today's society where we live in a world of constant connectivity, many people are now looking to cloud services in order to store their files so they can have access to them wherever they are. By using cloud services, users can access files anywhere with an internet connection. However, while cloud storage is convenient, it also presents security risks. From a forensics perspective, the increasing popularity of cloud storage platforms, makes investigation into such exploits much more difficult, especially since many platforms such as mobile devices as well as computers are able to use these services. This paper presents investigation of hubiC as one of popular cloud platforms running on Microsoft Windows 8.1.
