DESCRIPTION
This is a practice-based subject, using material based on the textbook. Learning is laboratory-based. Students assess if a crime has been committed, acquire digital evidence, analyse the evidence and prepare forensic reports.
The emphasis is on digital forensics applications, in particular:
forensic analysis of a digital storage device where evidence of visits to web sites is recovered to support or oppose a hypothesis before a criminal court
eDiscovery (a form of discovery related to civil litigation) where students acquire evidence of contact with a third party using email or social media
intrusion investigation into the nature and extent of an unauthorised network intrusion. Students look for evidence of malware being installed on the device that may use the network to exfiltrate data to an unauthorised person.
