Abstract

With the current hardware and software technology, document falsification with increasingly high degree of realism has been promoted. Fraudulent forgery in digital documents can be easily performed in order to deceive the observer. This article addresses the Digital Document Forensics research field, emphasizing ethical and legal implications of adulteration in digital images. It also presents some of the most interesting cases of forgery in different contexts such as in politics, scientific research and Forensic Medicine. Finally, it sheds light on some literature approaches which can be used to discern between genuine and fake digital

documents.
