Description
This comprehensive course transforms you into a professional Computer Hacking Forensic Investigator (CHFI). You will learn the systematic methodologies required to conduct successful digital investigations, ensuring that all digital evidence is collected, preserved, analyzed, and presented in a legally compliant manner.
What You Will Master: We delve into the technical aspects of evidence handling, beginning with the crucial initial response in an incident. You will gain hands-on experience with industry-standard forensic tools to image hard drives, recover seemingly destroyed data, and reconstruct timelines of malicious activity. The focus is not just on finding the hack, but understanding who did it, how they did it, and ensuring the findings are admissible in a court of law.
Unique Value Proposition: Unlike theoretical courses, this training emphasizes practical lab exercises using real-world scenarios, covering both Windows and Linux forensic environments. We provide step-by-step guidance on analyzing various file systems (NTFS, FAT, ext4) and interpreting artifacts left by attackers, including browser history, registry keys, and network logs. Furthermore, we dedicate a significant section to the legal aspects, ensuring you adhere to strict chain-of-custody protocols essential for professional forensic work.
