Final answer:
The search hits with the term 'John Doe' in the EnCase keyword interface using the default settings depend on the file types being searched. Text-based files are more likely to have hits, while non-text-based files may not yield any results unless the name appears in filenames or metadata.
Step-by-step explanation:
When searching for 'John Doe' in the EnCase keyword interface using the default settings, the search results will depend on what type of files are being searched. EnCase keyword searches can be performed on various file types, such as documents, emails, and metadata.
If the search is performed on text-based file types, such as documents or emails, the search will return hits for any occurrences of the term 'John Doe' within those files. The hits could range from mentions of the name in the content, filenames, or properties of the file.
For example, if there is a document titled 'John Doe Resume.docx' and the search is performed on documents, that file will likely be included in the search hits. However, if the search is performed on non-text-based file types, such as image files or binary files, the search is unlikely to return any results unless the name 'John Doe' is specifically mentioned in the filename or metadata of those files.
