Training Description: Tactical Windows Forensics, Presented By TrustedSec

Length: 8 hours - Friday, October 7, 2022 (8am - 5pm)

This class will take students through multiple labs that are designed to teach them key Windows forensics skills. Unlike other courses, students will start with the labs and learn by doing. Participants will work through a number of exercises where they analyze various aspects of Microsoft Windows using computer forensics on one or more compromised systems. Each lab will start with a brief introduction, followed by the lab itself. After an allotted time has passed, the techniques used to analyze the system and answer the questions will be discussed. Sample skills that will be utilized in the labs include analyzing logs, the file system, the registry, and memory. In addition to the class labs, students will be given additional labs to perform on their own and at their own pace. This course is designed for those with different Windows forensics skill levels - from beginners to experts, so there will be challenges for everyone. However, labs chosen will be tailored to the overall skill level of the class.

Course requirements:

Students should bring a laptop with two VMs:

VM software should be able to take snapshots.

All other materials will be supplied.


Participation in training is limited to a maximum of 50 attendees.

We look forward to seeing you at the 

conference this year at the
