According to the New York Post column, “HIRE LEARNING”, Computer Forensics remains one of the top 10 career options for 2007 and the coming decade. Why? The reasons are numerous, but here are two key factors: In 2002, watershed legislation introduced the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, a major change in securities law that mandates publicly-traded companies be “transparent in their accounting practices”. So going, going, gone are the days of “the cover up”- when businesses suspected employee fraud and took steps to bury, rather than to investigate “white collar” criminal activity.
Another factor in the growing need for Computer Forensics professionals is identity theft. Statistically one in three of us has or soon will be victimized. This crime is insidious as personal information can be obtained in so many ways, from stolen mail, to hacked retail databases. Brazen identity thieves have even stolen credit card numbers by standing on line behind a victim making a POS transaction at a store register and taking cell-phone camera photos.
While the Computer Forensics field is now being popularized, as with anything else, inexperience masquerades as “best in show”. Who do you turn to investigate Computer Fraud?
