Zusammenfassung:Computer systems and methods for managing sensitive data items when performing a computer-implemented digital forensic workflow using on-premises ("on-prem") and cloud resources are provided. The system includes a control computing node configured to: store the digital forensic workflow in a memory; and allocate forensic data processing tasks corresponding to portions of the digital forensic workflow to processing node computing devices ("processing nodes") for execution by the processing nodes, the processing nodes communicatively connected to the control computing node via at least one data communication network and including at least one cloud processing node and at least one on-premises ("on-prem") processing node. The control computing node automatically restricts allocation of a given forensic data processing task to the at least one on-prem processing node when forensic data to be operated on in performance of the given processing task is tagged as sensitive.
