NEW INVESTIGATIVE TREND EMERING!
Cyber Investigations
By Ralph Thomas
Cyber Investigations of all types are all around us. On the investigative
side- law firms are now hiring people who can do digital data evidence recovery.
That's because 90% of all business data now resides inside computers. When
criminal and civil cases come into lawyer's offices, they need a way to
obtain the digital evidence-this area is HOT! Those investigators who start
to specialize in it now, should do very very well. On the security side-
Businesses are starting to want computer security services to protect the
valuable information they keep inside. People want computer privacy.
The best overall computer security utility program on the market is Norton
Utilities from Symantec. With it, you'll find you can recover items
thought to be removed from a hard drive or disk drive, quickly find files
on the hard drives, and perform common utility functions such as defragmentation
and optimization. It also has a security wipe which means that, when used,
files deleted or trashed on a computer can NOT be recovered. Symantec also
makes the very best Virus protection software (another hot cyber service!)
The Symantec web page is found at:
http://www.symantec.com.
NOTE: Stay tuned to these NAIS newsletter pages for an article on using
Norton Utilities And Symantec Anti-Virus Software!
Cyber Investigations are hot, that's a given. NAIS has just added a new
PI Book and manuals section which can be accessed on the NAIS web pages.
