"what ever you do in computer can always e examined for forensics" very true!! this video is great, it shows the great dod forensics infrastructure in place and how well trained those agents are to provide a very accurate digital crime investigation.

I rarely think of Computer forensic professionals having to deploy overseas, but this points out that nation state threats obviously use technology as well. It's also interesting how they go into the details from a specific Marine Corps case in NC where cyber evidence looks to be helpful in pinpointing where the fugitive may have gone and aided in apprehending him.
They point out how much data CyberCrime investigators go through, in fact having too much data to comb through is often one of the hardest parts, essentially finding a needle in a haystack. The pictures showing stacks of hard drives really illustrates this. Reinforces what was learned in class about geolocation.

This video reminded me of the previous video on DoD cyber training in that it was a high level overview of the DoD's capabilities in forensics. I would kind of like to know how much information the person was able to get off the hard drive submerged in water and containing the dead water bug.

It's interesting to see what the Department of Defense and the military services are doing in the arena of computer forensics to help prosecute crimes. I am impressed that the individual was able to clean up a muddy, wet hard drive and get information off of it. The individual who buried them in the water probably figured it would destroy the evidence. I thought it would too, now I know it can't and you really just need to take a sledgehammer to the hard drive or storage media. That aside, it is interesting to note that there's a Defense Cyber Investigators Academy. I may look into that one. I wish I had known about it when I was still in the Service. The video does a great job of explaining cyber forensics and their role in assisting the prosecution of a criminal investigation.
