[OT] Getting into forensic work
I _must_ be misunderstading the requirements of all of this, because I simply cannot believe that what I am finding could at all be accurate for the things that I want to do. The reason I am sending this here is because I know that there are people here familiar with the process, though I apologize for the mostly off-topic nature. Though if it helps, I plan on doing the work with Linux! :-P Anyway, I want to have the ability to perform analyses that may be court-bound. My understanding is that in GA, this requires some form of licensing. That's fine, and I'm willing to get a license, but the only thing I can find says I need to have a four year degree in criminal justice and two years experience as a law enforcement officer or a person in charge of things at a company that is so licensed. Really? Even though I already know how to do things like preserve things and ensure that they're sound, I can't just pass an exam or something? Is getting a company bootstrapped for this really that much of an ordeal? Just to be allowed to say "yes, I was able to find data items X, Y and Z on drive AA, and this is the procedure used to make it a forensically sound process" in a court? --- Mike -- -- A man who reasons deliberately, manages it better after studying Logic than he could before, if he is sincere about it and has common sense. --- Carveth Read, “Logic”(Continue reading)
