Digital Forensics
This course introduces the basic concepts and technologies of digital forensics. I learned the fundamental techniques and tools utilized for collecting, processing, and preserving digital evidence on computers, mobile devices, networks, and cloud computing environments. I also engaged in oral and written communication to report digital forensic findings and prepare court presentation materials.
One of my favorite assignments was the midterm project I did. I had to make a diagram of a digital forensic lab. In this diagram I based the design of the book design except I added a couple of things. Things like the extra PCs and cabinets. The next thing I did was to find and calculate the cost of the items for the lab. So, I made a spreadsheet for the items and their price. The last thing I did was describe it all in a short paper. I described the diagram and spreadsheet in detail. After I did that in the paper, I made a plan for the lab (accreditation, maintenance, lab manager and technician requirements).
