Put what you have learned into practice to develop your digital forensics skills
Almost every investigation: criminal, civil, corporate, HR, or security will include a digital element. It is vital that the investigator can correctly interpret and present the complex digital evidence so that it can withstand scrutiny – it may be the key that proves or disproves an investigation.
Once you have completed the courses on the Digital Forensics and Incident Response (DFIR) Expert Track, this four-week practical course will help you gain hands-on experience in using digital evidence.
You’ll learn how to put the five-phase investigation model into practice, with a focus on the identification and preservation of digital evidence.
Learn how to carry out data interpretation
The course will help you develop an understanding of the requirements for a digital investigation.
You’ll explore different scenarios to learn how to examine, recover, extract, and interpret data. This understanding will help you collect data in a forensically sound manner, translate raw data from sources that are compressed, encoded, or encrypted, and provide investigational context to the data.
You’ll also learn how to present your interpreted data in a way that can be understood by others.
