Florita Cinta Arum Kuncoro, Imam Riadi . Digital Forensic Analysis of Cyberbullying Cases on TikTok Application Service using National Institute of Justice Method. International Journal of Computer Applications. 187, 17 ( Jul 2025), 60-67. DOI=10.5120/ijca2025925237
Along with the rapid development of digital technology, the use of social media has also increased, including the risk of cybercrime such as cyberbullying. Social media applications in Indonesia, such as TikTok, are one of the most widely used and vulnerable to being used for such deviant behavior. This study aims to investigate cyberbullying cases in the group chat feature in the TikTok application. The object discussed is the TikTok application running on Android devices. This research uses the method of the National Institute of Justice (NIJ) with five main stages: preparation, collection, examination, analysis, and reporting. The tools used in the digital investigation process are Oxygen Forensic Detective and Belkasoft Evidence Center X. The results show that Oxygen Forensic Detective has a data extraction accuracy rate of 96%, while Belkasoft Evidence Center X has an accuracy rate of 78% and shows different results in detecting image data and deleted data. Based on the analysis results, both tools are able to extract information in the form of application data, user names, messages, contacts, and deleted messages. This research contributes to the development of digital forensic handling strategies in dealing with cyberbullying cases on social media platforms.
