ITSY 1073 Computer Forensics Introduction (48 hours)
The course offers an overview of computer forensics for those
new to the field. This introductory, lecture-based course
covers protecting digital evidence, data hiding, encryption
and forensics, examining Windows computers, and examining
UNIX computers. The course lays the foundation for further
study leading to certifications such as Certified Computer
Examiner (CCE), Certified Cyber-Crime Expert (CCCE), Certified
Information Forensics Investigator (CIFI), and Certified Computer
Crime Investigator (CCCI).
Prerequisite: Basic knowledge of personal computing.
Required Textbook (available at the ACC Bookstore):
Computer Forensics: Incident Response Essentials by Warren
G. Kruse II and Jay G. Heiser, Addison-Wesley, 2002, ISBN:
0-201-70719-5.
ITSY 1091 Document Security (48 hours)
Several electronic layers exist in most documents, a fact
overlooked by many writers. Probing these sub-layers often
reveals information not intended for release by the author.
Documents in electronic formats create a “palimpsest” that
even semi-skilled investigators can probe for sensitive data.
This course focuses on protecting content in documents, whether
that content is in physical form (paper and similar documents)
or in electronic form on information systems.
Prerequisite: Basic knowledge of personal computing.
Required Textbook (available at the ACC Bookstore):
Investigating Computer Crime in the 21st Century 2nd Edition
by Ronald L. Mendell, Charles C. Thomas, 2004, ISBN: 0-398-07526-3.
