Computer forensics courses can help you learn data recovery techniques, digital evidence analysis, and incident response strategies. You can build skills in identifying cyber threats, conducting forensic investigations, and preserving digital evidence for legal proceedings. Many courses introduce tools like EnCase, FTK, and Autopsy, that support analyzing hard drives, recovering deleted files, and examining network traffic.
