Abstract

Network Forensics Technology is a study of the computer forensics examination process in a network environment. The OSI model, TCP/IP model and IP addressing will be discussed and the relationship and how these layered approaches relate to the computer forensics examination process. Students will determine how various network devices such as servers, hubs, switches and routers create log files that can be used for forensic examination. Students will examine various log files, port scans, and packet sniffers, etc., from network devices for computer forensic analysis. Students will have hands-on experience with actual computer networks in the lab using various forensics tools and devices.
