Just got an email from SANS !

Dear Chanakya,


You have been selected to facilitate in (FOR408: Computer Forensic Investigations - Windows In-Depth at SANS Bangalore 2013).

So thats a yay !

Lots of fun while learning in October in Bangalore !

Third SANS Conference in this year !

Cheers

Chanakya

P.S. I dont have any real Forensics Experience. Just a little with the EnCase Toolkit and stuff. Tips on things to prepare for the class and books if any would be real helpful !

Feedback will be posted !

Hey. If anyone has attended the FOR408 does the Wiebetech Ultradock v5 Write Blocker Kit come with cables ?

Congrats,

You may want to refer to this blog here for more information. Probably you can find something useful from there.

An Eye on Forensics: Studying for the GCFA certification: Part 1

There is also ton of books found on Amazon, Ultimately if you have time, you can look for books written by authors who are GIAC certified, those books are highly valuable and you probably find good amount of informations in addition to the GIAC course you are attending.

I am en route to the city where the class starts. As a facilitator I have to be a day earlier for the preparations. class starts on Monday.

I have read the blog thank you. It mostly refers to stuff that the 508 covers.

Thanks ! I will try to post a review once I am done !

I'm definitely jealous, I would love to take the 408 course - Python for pentesters would be great too. Those are both on my list.
