[DFSci] Forensic Certs

Sat Oct 27 12:41:58 PDT 2007

I'd give the IACIS CFCE (http://www.cops.org/cfce) top marks.  As a hiring manager I cut my technical questions way back if someone has a CFCE because I know they have proven, hands on experience and actually understand forensics, not just a software suite.  Although I hold both the HTCN advanced forensic technician and advanced computer crime investigator certs, I do not recognize them as a measurment of forensic or investigative skill.

Hope this helps,

Can you guys provide me some certs for computer forensics that are well
received within industry?  I'm not talking about the Sans cert.
Specifically I am looking at the CCE, HTCN (CCI Basic, Advanced etc.). Are
there others that are out there that I should be looking at?

Thanks,

Bob Huber
