Description
The need to professionally and successfully conduct computer forensic investigations of incidents and crimes has never been greater. This
has caused an increased requirement for information about the creation and management of computer forensic laboratories and the investigations
themselves. This includes a great need for information on how to cost-effectively establish and manage a computer forensics laboratory.
This book meets that need: a clearly written, non-technical book on the topic of computer forensics with emphasis on the establishment
and management of a computer forensics laboratory and its subsequent support to successfully conducting computer-related crime investigations.
Audience:
Corporate security directors, law enforcement high-technology crime investigators, other security professionals and private investigators.
The secondary audiences will be IT professionals and academics.
