Request: GCFA Practice Exams

Curious if anyone out there has a spare GCFA practice test they'd be willing to give. Getting ready to take it this Friday and wouldn't mind the extra practice.

Cheers,
George

I appreciate the offer. I actually passed it this morning and now have a spare one as well.

If anyone wants it PM me.

Congrats on the pass. Mind giving a brief write-up of the materials used and what you felt you learned/benefited from the certification pursuit?

@NetworkNewb, the practice exam is gone already.

I prepared for GCFA via FOR508 Live Training and On-demand. It's an outstanding course that includes a large amount of hands-on time to re-enforce lecture; I highly recommend taking the course if you're able. I learned a great deal about memory/disk forensic acquisition/analysis and timeline creation/analysis with a variety of open source tools to effectively perform a host-based forensic investigation.

A couple books that relate to the subject matter:

Incident Response & Computer Forensics, Third Edition, 3rd Edition: Safari Books Online - Premium

The Art of Memory Forensics: Detecting Malware and Threats in Windows, Linux, and Mac Memory: Safari Books Online - Premium
