Overview
Computer forensics investigates situations where there is possible evidence of computer crime. Such evidence is often referred to as digital or electronic evidence.We use the phrase computer crime in its broad sense, to include crimes in which: the computer is the target of the crime, or; the computer is a repository of evidence for a crime (e.g. memos), or; the computer is the tool by which a crime was committed (e.g. electronic fraud).
This course focuses on the principles which should direct the collection, analysis and presentation of the digital evidence available to an investigator, and the techniques that are used in order to ensure that those principles are met. It is increasingly the case that IT professionals, especially those with a responsibility for computer security, are required to gather, analyse and present evidence of computer crime.
