Chapter 1: Types of Computer-Based Investigations | Learn Computer Forensics (Podcast Summary)

In Chapter 1 of Learn Computer Forensics (Second Edition) by William Oettinger, readers are introduced to the different types of computer-based investigations, ranging from criminal to corporate cases. Oettinger explains the role of digital forensic examiners in identifying, collecting, and analyzing digital evidence while maintaining its integrity. He differentiates between criminal investigations—which may involve crimes such as stalking, cyberbullying, and illicit images—and corporate investigations that handle issues like employee misconduct, insider threats, and corporate espionage. The chapter outlines the responsibilities of first responders, investigators, and crime scene technicians, emphasizing the importance of proper evidence collection and chain of custody to preserve the admissibility of digital artifacts in court. Special attention is given to peer-to-peer file sharing, USENET newsgroups, social media, and the Internet of Things (IoT) as key sources of digital evidence. Through real-world examples like the BTK Killer, Silk Road, and the San Bernardino terror attack, Oettinger illustrates how digital forensics uncovers crucial evidence, leading to successful prosecutions. The chapter also covers search warrants, subpoenas, and the legal framework governing digital evidence collection in the United States. With a focus on practical applications, Chapter 1 sets the foundation for understanding the investigative process in both public and private sectors.
