The three phrases seem to be used interchangeably. Being pedantic, Forensic
Computing is correct as "forensic" is an adjective used to mean "relating to
courts or law". However, forensic computing in that sense could also relate
to the application of any computing technique to a part of the legal process.
Personally, I prefer to talk about digital evidence recovery, DE analysis and
DE presentation to distinguish between parts of the process.
