Answer: True

Step-by-step explanation:

Digital forensic analysts are the people who examine digital devices such as cameras, mobile phones and computers in order to get evidence of crime.

The evidence gotten by them can then be used to provide support to criminal investigations and can also be given to the intelligence agencies. Their function is to get back and safeguard the digital data which are related to cybercrime investigations as well as criminal investigations.
