Digital Forensics | Davin Teo | TEDxHongKongSalon – YouTube Watch this video and think about how the career of digital forensics investigators relate to the social sciences. Write a journal entry describing what you think about the speaker’s pathway to his career.


While watching Davin’s video, I think it is very interesting that he chose to switch careers near the start of his accounting journey. The opportunity for entering the tech field came to Davin and he was able to find his niche. There are several people in the industry who come with decades of experience from various different fields. Some of the principles of social science relate to this career, as one example is covering up the investigation. If a suspect notice that their mouse is on the wrong side, or something on their desk is awry, they will become suspicious. Documenting the scene allows for investigators to repair the scene to how it was when they got there to avoid suspicion. They also use case studies, experiments, and data collection in order to complete their duties.
