The IACIS Applied Scripting Forensic course is a 36-hour intermediate-level course that equips you with practical skills and knowledge to exploit data using various scripting languages. Through instructor-led and hands-on exercises, students will learn to extract data from diverse sources using scripting languages like RegEx, SQLite, Batch, BASH, Python, and PowerShell. Using Linux, we will explore alternate command-line extraction techniques to further exploit unstructured file data.
Students will learn to create scripts to extract meaningful and relevant information to support case examinations where automated processes fail to decipher the data. They will use real-world data examples to practice their new skills and ultimately deepen their scripting knowledge beyond standard forensic tools.
No prior programming knowledge or experience is required for this course. The sole prerequisite is good experience in conducting digital forensic investigations and a solid understanding of digital forensic analysis tools.
