The term cyber-crime no longer refers only to hackers and other external attackers. The ubiquity of computers as a communications tool means that the role of computer forensics - the practice of examining historical activity on electronic devices when someone suspects inappropriate or illegal activity - will continue to grow in importance. These days, each and every case of fraud involves a very strong element of computer-based evidence. Hence, forensic tools and the professionals with the qualifications to use them have also become critical resources in every major organization.
Computer Forensics is the art and science of applying computer science to aid the legal process. Computer forensics requires specialized expertise and tools that goes above and beyond the normal data collection and preservation techniques available to end-users or system support personnel.
Computer Forensics is the application of computer investigation and analysis techniques in the interests of determining potential legal evidence. Securing and analyzing electronic evidence is a central theme in an ever-increasing number of conflict situations and criminal cases.
This process often involves the investigation and examination of data that resides on digital media such as data storage devices, hard drives, portable data devices (USB Drives, External drives, Micro Drives and many more).
Electronic evidence is critical in the following situations: Computer break-ins, Possession of pornography, Breach of contract, Industrial espionage, E-mail Fraud, Bankruptcy, Disputed dismissals, Web page defacements, Theft of company documents etc.
About this workshop
This workshop will give participants the necessary skills to identify an intruder's footprints and to properly gather the necessary evidence to prosecute. Many of today's top tools of the forensic trade will be taught during this course, including software, hardware and specialized techniques. The need for businesses to become more efficient and integrated with one another, as well as the home user, has given way to a new type of criminal, the "cyber-criminal." It is no longer a matter of "will your organization be comprised (hacked)?" but, rather, "when?" Today's battles between corporations, governments, and countries are no longer fought only in the typical arenas of boardrooms or battlefields using physical force. Now the battlefield starts in the technical realm, which ties into most every facet of modern day life. If you or your organization requires the knowledge or skills to identify, track, and prosecute the cyber-criminal, then this is the course for you.
This 5 day highly interactive course will help participants have hands on understanding and experience in Incident Response & Computer Forensics and prepare for EC-Council Computer Hacking Forensic Investigator exam 312-49.
