Advanced Computer Forensics

Catalog description

This course provides cybersecurity students with an advanced study of computer, network, and device forensics as a part of investigations. Students will conduct hands-on forensic research to identify how digital media and/or digital networks were compromised and the method(s) of intrusion employed. Students will be able to review what data is stored on a device, how the device services are consumed, and what methods attackers (and forensic analysts) deploy to retrieve information without an owner’s permission.
