The advancement of technology, especially in mobile devices like smartphones, has had a significant impact on human life, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic, leading to the growth of online activities, especially on social media platforms like TikTok. TikTok is a highly popular social media platform, primarily known for its focus on short videos and images often accompanied by music. However, this has also opened up opportunities for misuse, including the spread of false information and defamation. To address this issue, this research utilizes mobile forensic analysis with Error Level Analysis (ELA) to collect digital evidence related to crimes on TikTok. This research contributes by applying digital forensic techniques, specifically Error Level Analysis (ELA), to detect image manipulation on TikTok. By using forensic methods, this research helps uncover digital crimes occurring on TikTok and provides essential insights to combat misuse and criminal activities on this social media platform. The research aims to collect digital evidence from TikTok on mobile devices using MOBILedit Forensic Express Pro and authenticate it with ELA through tools like FotoForensics and Forensically, as well as manual examination. This research follows the National Institute of Justice (NIJ) methodology with ten stages of mobile forensic investigation, including scenario creation, identification, collection, investigation, and analysis. The research yields manipulated digital evidence from TikTok, primarily concerning upload times. Error Level Analysis (ELA) is used to assess the authenticity of images, revealing signs of manipulation in digital evidence. The research's contribution is to produce or collect manipulated digital evidence from TikTok, primarily concerning upload times, and to apply the Error Level Analysis (ELA) approach or technique to assess the authenticity of images, uncovering signs of manipulation in digital evidence.Downloads
