The Electronic Crime Scene Specialist Certification is a training module that provides investigators first responders and crime scene specilists with the necessary knowledge and skills to identify Electronic Storage Devices (ESD's), and acquire and preserve volitile electronic data that may be otherwise lost if not recovered in a timely fashion.
TRAINING OBJECTIVES:
Handling Crime Scene Electronic Evidence: This section will give the attendee an overiew of how to identify, protect, preserve and transport Electronic Storage Devices (ESD's). Primary topics include having the proper bags and tags, identifying ESD's that may contain potential evidence, the purpose and function of properly seperating ESD's from other types of crime scene evidence, knowing when to shut down ESD equipment and when to leave it on (i.e., computers), and when to request a digital forensics specialist on the scene.
Live Digital Evidence Seizure: This section begins the technical aspects associated with being an electronic crime scene specialist by providing the attendee with practical steps to take when data from ESD's must be recovered imediately in order to preserve the integrity of the potential evidence. Discussion and exercises will be conducted on recovering "live data" from ESD's that would be lost if the ESD is powered down, or if otherwise left 'untouched' for an extended period of time.
Network Data Seizure ~ Router Interrogation: Like other volitile data on ESD's that can be lost when devices are unplugged or left 'untouched', data from Network Routers can provide 'hidden' clues to activity by suspects that may be lost if not recovered in a timely fashion. Similiar to the Live Digital Evidence Seizure section, this section provides the attendee with the practical skills and considerations involved with analyzing and recovering potential electronic evidence from small office and home network environments.
TESTING:
