Computer and Hacking Forensics (Cybrary)

Digital crime is more prevalent than ever, and the attacks are getting highly complex. Security software can’t pinpoint it—the eyes and expertise of a trained professional is necessary. Our free Computer and Hacking Forensics training teaches you how to become that professional.

Love the idea of investigation? That’s what computer forensics is all about. You’ll learn how to determine potential online criminal activity at its inception, how to gather legal evidence, how to search and how to investigate wireless attacks. Additional topics include unlocking passwords, the establishment and maintenance of a physical “chain of custody” and recovering lost and deleted data. At the conclusion, you will have been taught the concepts included in the industry leading EC-Council CHFI certification exam.

Post-Exploitation Hacking (Cybrary)

As the name implies, Post Exploitation Hacking – Persistence and Continued Access, refers to the series of steps to be followed after breaking into a system. Offensive hacking to accomplish an objective requires ultimate stealth—but unfortunately many hackers (both script-kiddies and experienced professionals) sometimes fail to perform acts that conceal their identity and exploit their target covertly and consistently for intelligence and to accomplish the mission. In this free self-paced online training course, you’ll cover three main topics: Information Gathering, Backdooring and Covering Steps.
