According to this week’s lecture. Computer Forensics refers to the investigation and analysis of media originating from digital sources in an effort to uncover evidence to present in a court of law. Getting a certification in digital forensics allow the person to assert his or her credibility in the forensics field. Additionally, having the proper certification can validate the integrity of computer forensics professionals. As was mentioned in the lecture, anyone can present themselves as a computer forensic expert, which in turn can lead to poor quality examinations and a negative view of the profession as a whole. Especially, when digital forensic professionals have to present their findings in front of a jury. One way to overcome this issue is by requiring these forensic experts to provide their credentials and professional certifications so they can validate their skills and expertise and show that their work is credible.
