Cybersecurity & Digital Forensics

This book is for beginners, cybersecurity and digital forensics enthusiasts, or anyone who wants

to boost their knowledge, skills and want to learn about cybersecurity & digital forensics. This

book explains different programming languages, cryptography, steganography techniques,

networking, web application security, and digital forensics concepts in an evident manner with

examples. This book will enable you to grasp different cybersecurity, digital forensics, and

programming concepts and will allow you to understand how to implement security and break

security in a system for testing purposes. Also, in this book, we will discuss how to manually

perform a forensics investigation for extracting volatile & non-volatile data in Linux and

Windows OS using the command-line interface. In this book, we will mostly use a command-line interface for performing different tasks using programming and commands skills that we will acquire in different chapters.

In this book you will learn:

Setting up & Managing Virtual Machine in VirtualBox
