What a Digital Forensics intern does

The Digital Forensics role, what you build at each level and what you need before you start.

Learn how investigators examine digital evidence: chain of custody, hashing, disk imaging, file recovery, Windows, browser, email, memory and network artefacts, timelines and court-style reports, using only public practice images and your own devices.

What you build, level by level

  • Level 1: Foundations: What digital forensics is, Law and ethics, Chain of custody and more.
  • Level 2: Building real features: Timeline analysis, Registry analysis, Browser forensics and more.
  • Level 3: Professional work and capstone: Full case investigation, Expert-style report, Cloud evidence and more.
