Computer hacking forensic investigation is the process of detecting hacking attacks and properly extracting evidence to report the crime and conduct audits to prevent future attacks. Computer forensics is simply the application of computer investigation and analysis techniques in the interests of determining potential legal evidence. Evidence might be sought in a wide range of computer crime or misuse, including but not limited to theft of trade secrets, theft of or destruction of intellectual property and fraud. CHFI investigators can draw on an array of methods for discovering data that resides in a computer system, or recovering deleted, encrypted, or damaged file information.
The need for businesses to become more efficient and integrated with one another, as well as the home user, has given way to a new type of criminal, the “Cyber-Criminal.” It is no longer a matter of “Will your organization be comprised (hacked)?” but, rather, “When?” Today's battles between corporations, governments, and countries are no longer fought only in the typical arenas of boardrooms or battlefields using physical force. Now the battle starts in the technical realm, which ties into almost every facet of modern day life.
