What you'll learn
Training overview
Infosec’s Computer and Mobile Forensics Boot Camp teaches you how to identify, preserve, extract, analyze and report forensic evidence on computers and mobile devices. You will learn about the challenges of computer and mobile forensics, walk through the process of analysis and examination of operating systems and mobile devices, and gain a deep understanding of differences in evidence locations and examination techniques on Windows and Linux computers and Android, iOS and Windows phones.
More than 30 hands-on labs simulating a real cybercrime investigation provide you with practical experience using commercial and open-source forensic tools. The boot camp also prepares you to earn two popular certifications: the Certified Computer Forensics Examiner (CCFE) and the Certified Mobile Forensics Examiner (CMFE).
