GIAC Certified forensic analysts (GCFAs) are front line investigators during computer intrusion breaches across the enterprise. They can help identify and secure compromised systems even if the adversary uses anti-forensic techniques. Using advanced techniques such as file system timeline analysis, registry analysis, and memory inspection, GCFAs are adept at finding unknown malware, rootkits, and data that the intruders thought had eliminated from the system.
The popularity of mobile devices in our work and personal lives has become increasingly broad and complex. The volume and type of data that these devices carry such as contact lists, email, work documents, SMS messages, images, internet browsing history and application specific data make them important for the individual who carries the device and allows for a rich source of data for forensic examinations.
The GIAC Cyber Threat Intelligence (GCTI) is the industry's only certification that proves you understand intelligence analysis and can perform intrusion investigations across complex scenarios. This certification covers strategic, operational, and tactical Cyber Threat Intelligence, Open Source Intelligence and Campaigns, Intelligence Applications and Kill Chain.
