The Digital Forensics Certification Board (www.dfcb.org) has re-opened the application process for the DFCP and DFCA certifications. Founded in 2004, the Digital Forensics Certification Board is a member-driven, non-profit, vendor independent organization of the National Center for Forensic Science, sponsored in part through a grant from the National Institute of Justice. DFCB was founded to provide, among other things, an objective certification in digital forensics in order to promote trust and confidence in the digital forensics profession. The Board currently offers professional certification for digital evidence examiners called the Digital Forensics Certified Practitioner (DFCP).
