DIM 560 - Dig Investigations for Civil Litigation

The course introduces principles of digital investigations that are specific to civil litigation. While litigation support services typically utilize many of the same tools processes, and procedures as public sector criminal investigations, private sector use of computer forensics frequently involves issues that the public sector does not often consider, such as data recovery and restoration, erasure of media and electronic discovery. Students will examine case studies of public sector digital investigations to compare with private sector methodologies.
