Is there anyone out there that is involved with Computer Forensics ?
I would like some practical advice as to how to get into the field. At my company, this position is usually only given to someone who already has years and years of experience in computer forensics because of liability issues. Also, it appears that law enforcement and ex-military personnel who have specialized training seem to get these jobs. I have vast experience in many operating systems like Windows, Unix, etc. as a Systems Administrator and I also have experience in hardening such systems. Are there any good certifications for Computer Forensics that anyone has obtained or has any knowledge about ? Any advise would be greatly appreciated.
