Chu, Executive Director Center for Information Assurance Certificate of Accomplishment The Center for Information Assurance at the Pennsylvania State University, through its curricula, certify that Your Name Here has acquired the knowledge and skills that meet the National Training Standard NSTISSI-4011 for the Information Systems Security (INFOSEC) Professionals, established by the Committee on National Security Systems (CNSS) and the National Security Agency (NSA), on December 2005

  11. IST 454 focuses on computer and cyber forensics. Students will learn different aspects of computer and cyber crime and ways in which to uncover, protect, exploit, and document digital evidence. Students will be exposed to different types of tools (both software and hardware), techniques and procedure, and be able to use them to perform rudimentary forensic investigations.

  12. Course Objectives • Understand the different aspects of computer and cyber crime. • Understand the basic concepts and issues of computer forensics • Understand what tools and techniques to use in computer and cyber crime investigations • Perform basic computer and cyber forensic investigations • Understand the documentation need in performing forensic investigations
