Digital Forensics & Incident Response
Digital Forensics and Incident Response (DFIR) is a comprehensive course designed to arm participants with the knowledge and skills needed to identify, investigate, and respond to cyber incidents. Through a combination of lectures, hands-on labs, and real-world case studies, participants will gain a deep understanding of the tools, techniques, and best practices used in the field of DFIR. The course will cover a wide range of topics, including:
- The incident response process and incident handling best practices. Identification of common attack vectors and malware
- Digital forensics techniques for data collection and analysis Network forensics and analysis
- Memory forensics and analysis Windows and Linux forensics
Participants will also have the opportunity to work on a variety of practical exercises and case studies, giving them the chance to apply their knowledge to real-world scenarios. Upon completion of the course, attendees will be well-prepared to take on roles in incident response, digital forensics, and other cybersecurity-related positions. The course has been designed for professionals with a basic understanding of networking and operating systems, but no prior experience in DFIR is required.
