Every organization will eventually deal with cyber-crime. Fraud, intrusion, insider threats, phishing and other digital crimes are now a fact of life. If you are an IT or law enforcement professional and don’t know how to look for and sort out these cases, your skills are becoming less valuable everyday.

Do you understand e-discovery requirements? Do you know how to manage a cyber-crime scene? Do you understand regulatory requirements from PCI to SOX? Is your enterprise or agency in compliance? The need for digital forensics and incident response is one of the fastest growing fields, yet there are few sources where professionals can connect and get the information they need.

SANS and Rob Lee developed this blog and the related resources at forensics.sans.org to provide a “home” for those that are focused on computer forensics, digital investigations, and incident response. Here you will find advice, research, training, and other resources to unravel incidents and fight crime.

The SANS Institute is the most trusted and by far the largest source for information security training and certification in the world. It also develops, maintains and makes available at no cost, the largest collection of research documents about various aspects of information security.
