Overview
Digital forensic practices stem from forensic science, the science of collecting and examining evidence or materials. Digital or computer forensics focuses on the digital domain including computer forensics, network forensics, and mobile forensics. As the cyber security profession evolves, organizations are learning the importance of employing digital forensic practices into their everyday activities. Computer forensic practices can help investigate attacks, system anomalies, or even help System administrators detect a problem by defining what is normal functional specifications and validating system information for irregular behaviors.
In the event of a cyber-attack or incident, it is critical investigations be carried out in a manner that is forensically sound to preserve evidence in the event of a breach of the law. Far too many cyber-attacks are occurring across the globe where laws are clearly broken and due to improper or non-existent forensic investigations, the cyber criminals go either unidentified, undetected, or are simply not prosecuted.
Cyber Security professionals who acquire a firm grasp on the principles of digital forensics can become invaluable members of Incident Handling and Incident response teams. The Computer Hacking Forensic Investigator course provides a strong baseline knowledge of key concepts and practices in the digital forensic domains relevant to today’s organizations. CHFI provides its attendees a firm grasp on the domains of digital forensics.
The CHFI program is designed for all IT professionals involved with information system security, computer forensics, and incident response.
'For the most up-to-date and enriched knowledge of digital forensics, I chose Computer Hacking Forensic Investigator (C|HFI), and it certainly paid off well. The training content, video streaming, and the hands-on labs, every learning method incorporated in the program were very interactive. I adored the real-time practice sessions as they left me with impressive technical skills. Getting to learn and practice hundreds of investigation tools was another exciting part of the program.'
