Course Overview
No cybersecurity team is complete without digital forensics. Digital forensics and investigations are critical to successfully handling a cyber incident when it occurs.
EC-Council’s CHFI program prepares cybersecurity professionals with the knowledge and skills required to perform effective digital forensics investigations and bring their organization into a state of forensic readiness. This includes establishing the forensics process, lab, evidence handling procedures, as well as the investigation procedures required to validate/triage incidents and point the incident response teams in the right direction. Forensic Readiness could be the difference between a minor incident and a major cyber-attack that brings a company to its knees.
This intense hands-on digital forensics program immerses students in over 68 forensic labs, enabling them to work on crafted evidence files and utilize the tools employed by the world’s top digital forensics professionals. Students will go beyond traditional hardware and memory forensics and learn current topics such as cloud forensics, mobile and IoT, investigating web application attacks, and malware forensics. CHFI presents a methodological approach to computer forensics including searching and seizing, chain-of-custody, acquisition, preservation, analysis and reporting of digital evidence Students learn how to acquire and manage evidence through various operating environments, as well as the chain of custody and legal procedures required to preserve evidence and ensure it is admissible in court. This knowledge will help them prosecute cybercriminals and limit liability for target organizations.
This program combines credible professional knowledge with a globally recognized certification that is required for a career in digital forensics, Digital investigations, and DFIR.
