Specifically one that leads to a career in Forensic. I am coming from years in the operating room. I do have a little bit of DIY knowledge on computers.

Hey, so you said getting a Digital Forensics degree is the popular thing to do, but what about Cybersecurity degrees? Is it normal or common to work as Cyber Forensic Investigator with that degree? I'm asking because I'm interested in Cybersecurity in general, but the investigative and forensic side of it sounds really interesting. Should I go for a Digital Forensics degree instead? Or is it fine to keep going with my Cybersecurity degree? If it is fine to keep going, do you think getting a minor in Digital Forensics would help much? Also, is any kind of police training required? I don't want to have to be trained with a gun and get that dirty. I want to stick to pure investigation in environments that are generally safe.

Hey mate, those are all good questions! I think it’s best to do a degree in cyber security, this way if you have more options for employment and you’re not just limited to digital forensics! You can always do forensics certifications and train in that. There is no specialist training for police, police training is only available for the police force. You don’t have to work in the police, in fact there are more civilian forensic jobs than law enforcement. I recommend you learn more abour degrees vs certifications (in general), watch this video it’ll explain it all to you, its applicable to forensics as well: kzread.info/dash/bejne/mGhplKWSgszQdtI.html

Cyber crime investigator is a crook's job. You seem decent. Therefore, I assume that you don't meet the profile. Besides, I hope to significantly shrink the job pool after I finalize my research in developing a modrl for secure multi party computing on turing machines, and then implementing my research in GrapheneOS. It's a dead field.

Hi, am interested in Master's Degree in cybercrime and Digital investigation or digital forensic investigation. I applied in Middlesex and Greenwich universities but they both saying that course is not available. Could plz help me out with choosing university of good ranking?

IMHO Cyber Security & Digital Forensics is 1 of the very few fiends wherein law enforcement & even military / intelligence agencies would almost beg for applicants. Well, here in 🇨🇦 that’s the case though

Sorry I cannot help with you that, please report this to your local police

you should do a little investigation on a man by the name of Devon Turner aka Punchmade Dev he litterally makes videos on how he uses msr softwares and card scanners to write blank credit cards and clone stolen information onto them that should be illegal in my opinion and i don't know he is no caught for credit card fraud.
