Computer forensics is a growing new sector in the criminal justice field that uses digital evidence such as emails, phone records and other electronic records to solve crime. Illegal activities including credit-card fraud, and copyright and intellectual property theft are now curbed effectively through computer forensics. If you are currently working in a criminal justice career this is a great way to expand your skill set and gain more job security and compensation. If you are just breaking into the field, computer forensics training will set you apart from the crowd. A computer forensics course will teach you about how to identify where digital evidence is stored and how to retrieve and interpret it. Computer forensics jobs are found in government agencies, police departments and law firms. Many also work independently or as a consultant and the Bureau of Labor Statistics reports an average salary of $47,700 a year. Enroll today!
