Digital Forensics is collecting, analyzing, and reporting data that can be used in a court of law. Daven Teo was put into digital forensics after he was given an incredible opportunity. The fact that he started as an accountant and decided to help out with IT stuff probably gave him some foundational experience with what you might have to work with in digital forensics. Through working on IT and accounting, he worked his way up to one of the “big four” accounting firms and was allowed to work in the first national digital forensics practice, located in Australia. He had no clue what it was about, but it was extremely interesting to him, so he ran with it. Some opportunities presented in life could be a once-in-a-lifetime thing, or something extremely important, just as Daven Teo’s opportunity to work in digital forensics was. Taking a chance and not missing out on opportunities could greatly affect your education, career, and life.
