This class is an advanced graduate-level class and is geared towards understanding the fundamental concepts behind Digital Forensics. The students will be expected to participate in large projects under the guidance of the instructor. Programming language knowledge is a must. However, you can program in any language you are comfortable in.
This class will be focused on current research and challenges in Digital Forensics including:
|
INFS 501 or equivalent
INFS 515 or equivalent
INFS 590 or equivalent
SWE 510 or equivalent
COMPUTER ACCOUNTS
All students should have accounts on the central Mason Unix system mason.gmu.edu (also known as osf1.gmu.edu) and on IT&E Unix cluster zeus.ite.gmu.edu (Instructions and related links are here). Please read the FAQ if you have any questions. Students can work in IT&E computer labs for programming projects during the specified hours.
You will be graded on a total of 500 points. Your grade will be calculated as follows:
Final letter grade will be calculated using the scale below-
≥ 490 |
A+ |
≥ 465 |
