1. Exploration…The lion’s share of CF knowledge is self-taught. The best examiners are insatiably curious and voraciously read about software, hardware, registry keys, root kits, etc. They live for figuring out how it all fits together. Fortunately, there’s a wealth of information: in books (search Amazon.com for “computer forensics”) and online (www.e-evidence.info) in discussion forums, product FAQs, user groups and confabs.
2. Education…A computer science or law degree is nice, but you can study animal husbandry so long as you go on to study CF in a comprehensive way. Professional certifications that legitimately demonstrate training, testing, and practical experience have value in helping courts, clients, and potential employers assess your qualifications. Supplement your college degree with as many courses and certifications as your time and budget allow.
