Importance Of The Course

It is now a known fact that cybercrime has emerged as a significant global challenge as it encompasses a broad spectrum of criminal activities carried out using digital platforms. 

The cyber crimes are not limited to hacking, identity theft, phishing, cyberstalking, and cyberterrorism. 

As these crimes become increasingly sophisticated, the need for effective mechanisms to investigate, analyze, and present digital evidence has never been more critical. This is where the discipline of cyber forensics steps in, offering a structured approach to uncover and preserve digital evidence, ensuring it is admissible in courts of law.
