This article analyzes theoretical and practical issues related to the collection and evaluation of digital evidence in criminal proceedings. The legal nature of the concept of digital evidence is examined based on the new provisions introduced into the Criminal Procedure Code of the Republic of Uzbekistan in 2024. Although the participation of a specialist is designated as a mandatory condition in collecting digital evidence, their qualification criteria and the technical mechanism verifying the exact identity of a duplicate copy to the original are insufficiently developed at the legislative level. Today, the institute of the "chain of custody" has not yet fully matured as an independent procedural form or a distinct legal institution within criminal procedure law. The article presents a comparative analysis of international practice, specifically referencing the Council of Europe's Convention on Cybercrime, EU Regulation No. 2023/1543, and the ISO/IEC 27037:2012 standard. Challenges regarding access to cross-border electronic data are also addressed. The study employs comparative-legal, formal-legal, and systematic analysis methods. As a result of the research, specific proposals are put forward regarding the verification of digital evidence integrity via cryptographic hash values, the implementation of an independent chain of custody institution, and the expansion of cross-border cooperation. The scientific novelty of the article lies in proposing legal criteria for verifying the integrity of digital evidence and maintaining the chain of custody.
