Description
This course offers you a comprehensive introduction to IT forensics, operating system artifact analysis, and the fundamentals of cyber security. You'll learn how malware like viruses, worms, trojans, and other types of malicious software work, and gain valuable insights into prevention strategies against cyberattacks. Threats such as phishing, DDoS attacks, man-in-the-middle attacks, and spoofing are explained in detail so you can identify and effectively prevent them.A central focus of this course is the analysis of operating system artifacts. You'll learn how to identify and evaluate traces in Windows, Linux, and macOS systems. Topics include registry artifacts, event logs, user activities, USB traces, cloud data, and the analysis of memory artifacts such as pagefile.sys, hiberfil.sys, and volume shadow copies. This will give you a thorough understanding of the various types of forensically relevant information that can be found on operating systems.Another key aspect is file system analysis, especially NTFS. We'll cover the structure of the boot sector, the Master File Table (MFT), key attributes like $Data and $File_Name, as well as alternate data streams (ADS). You'll also explore FAT, exFAT, EXT, and APFS to develop a solid foundation in understanding and analyzing different storage formats.In addition, you'll become familiar with the most important legal paragraphs related to cybercrime. Finally, you'll learn how to securely configure encryption technologies such as BitLocker, VeraCrypt, and FileVault.By the end of the course, you'll be able to analyze operating systems, identify artifacts, detect threats, and apply prevention strategies. Hands-on exercises, cheat sheets, and a quiz make this course a practical and well-rounded learning experience.
