Computer Hacking Forensic Investigator
EC-Council releases the most advanced Computer Forensic Investigation program in the world. CHFI presents a detailed methodological approach to computer forensics and evidence analysis. It is a comprehensive course covering major forensic investigation scenarios that enable students to
acquire hands-on experience on various forensic investigation techniques and standard tools
necessary to successfully carry-out a computer forensic investigation.
 
Battles between corporations, governments, and countries are no longer fought using physical force. Cyber war has begun and the consequences can be seen in everyday life. With the onset of
sophisticated cyber-attacks, the need for advanced cyber security and investigation training is a
mandate in the present day. If you or your organization requires the knowledge or skills to identify,
track, and prosecute the cybercriminals, then this is the course for you.
 
This course helps students to excel in digital evidence acquisition, handling and analysis in a
forensically sound manner. Acceptable in a court of law, these skills will lead to successful
prosecutions in various types of security incidents such as data breaches, corporate espionage,
insider threats and other intricate cases involving computer systems.
