tcm.rocks/psap-y - We've got new forensics training on the way! Until then, check out our SOC courses and certifications, like the PSAP (Practical SOC Analyst Professional.)

The core principle of forensic science is Locard's Exchange Principle. Dr. Edmond Locard (the Sherlock Holmes of France) created the concept to show how when any two objects come into contact, there's always a transfer of material between each object, like a suspect leaving behind shoe prints at a crime scene. In the digital realm, this exchange happens as well, like registry keys being modified, system logs, evidence of program execution, etc.

And this is at the heart of digital forensics. Don't forget to subscribe to never miss a content drop from the TCMS team, like this Intro to Digital Forensics video: youtu.be/umB4WlfQ1JY

Check out our SOC 201 course: tcm.rocks/soc201-y

And as of February 20th, Practical Window Forensics will be removed from the TCM Security Academy! We will be replacing the material in the near future with different DFIR content. tcm.rocks/pwf-y
