With the widespread adoption of Internet of Things (IoT) applications around the world, security related problems become a challenge since the number of cybercrimes that must be identified and investigated increased dramatically. The volume of data generated and handled is immense due to the increased number of IoT applications around the world. As a result, when a cybercrime happens, the volume of digital data needs to be dealt with is massive. Consequently, more effort and time are needed to handle the security issues. As a result, in digital forensics, the analysis phase is an important and challenging phase. This paper proposes a generic proactive model for the cybercrime analysis process in the Internet of Things. The model is focused on the classification of evidences in advance based on its significance and relation to past crimes, as well as the severity of the evidence in terms of the probability occurrence of a cybercrime. This model is supposed to save time and effort during the automated forensic investigation process.
