Advances in information technology have a negative impact, including the public can freely act in cybercrimes. One of the popular instant messaging services is Signal Instant Messenger, which can trigger cyber crimes such as cyberbullying, pornography, gambling, fraud, and phishing. Cyberbullying crimes can occur as long as the application used provides features to send text messages, pictures, or videos. This study aims to analyze digital evidence so that it can be identified as a case of cyberbullying on the Signal Instant Messenger application.The investigation process uses one of the methods of the Digital Forensic Research Workshop (DFRWS) framework, with stages including identification, preservation, collection, examination, analysis, and presentation in the digital evidence search process. The digital forensic tools used to collect evidence are MOBILedit Forensic Express Pro, Belkasoft Evidence Center, and SQLite DB Browser. The process of identifying digital evidence uses a repetition of words that contain ridicule or insult to the victim so that the perpetrator is identified as committing cyberbullying.The results of this study are in the form of digital evidence in the form of reports to be analyzed and used to support cyberbullying investigations in court. This study obtained the results that the actions or conversations that led to cyberbullying were as many as 4 people, 2 as victims, and 1 as witness in accordance with the expected research objectives, even though they had not been able to read deleted or accidentally deleted chats.
