Hi,
I'm currently pursuing my 3rd year in BE CSE. I'm looking forward to taking up MS DIGITAL FORENSICS after my UG.
I read about the course and felt that it was something different from usual and now I'm really serious on having a career in this field. I'm looking for a university in the USA. I would be pleased if someone could help me on how to really go about it. Would taking up the ACE CERTIFICATION AND AN INTERNSHIP with a related company help?
It would be really helpful if you could also tell me what kind of courses I need to do and also which part of computers I would need to have a strong base on.
Looking forward to your help.
Thanks!
The ACE certification well help you if FTK is going to be your tool of choice however it will not teach you the foundations of Digital Forensics. I would lean towards SANs.
There were many programs here in the US, if i were you i would look at a Information Security Program with a focus on digital forensics. This will make sure you have a good foundation in information security which a lot of forensicators miss in their training and have to learn later.
