Overview of this book

A computer forensics investigator must possess a variety of skills, including the ability to answer legal questions, gather and document evidence, and prepare for an investigation. This book will help you get up and running with using digital forensic tools and techniques to investigate cybercrimes successfully. Starting with an overview of forensics and all the open source and commercial tools needed to get the job done, you'll learn core forensic practices for searching databases and analyzing data over networks, personal devices, and web applications. You'll then learn how to acquire valuable information from different places, such as filesystems, e-mails, browser histories, and search queries, and capture data remotely. As you advance, this book will guide you through implementing forensic techniques on multiple platforms, such as Windows, Linux, and macOS, to demonstrate how to recover valuable information as evidence. Finally, you'll get to grips with presenting your findings efficiently in judicial or administrative proceedings. By the end of this book, you'll have developed a clear understanding of how to acquire, analyze, and present digital evidence like a proficient computer forensics investigator.

Preface

Welcome to the world of digital forensics! In this book, you will be going into the depths of the Windows operating system to determine the user's actions on the system. You will also learn about the different filesystems used by the Windows operating system. The role of the examiner is not only about the examination, but also about the report you generate and how you explain your findings. You will learn how to prepare for the digital investigation, including equipment selection, training, and planning a response to the crime scene. It is my hope this book will be your resource if you are a novice examiner or an experienced examiner.
