Overview


Here are the files from the 3CS workshop Network Forensics and Incident Response. Included are the notes that I used for a faculty train-the-trainer workshop (which was much more extensive, 4-days, than the 3 hour 3CS workshop, readings, and the files to accompany the notes).

--------------------------------------

This is a series of very short video lectures -- around 15-20 minutes each -- that provides a bare-bones introduction to Linux. I created these videos for faculty members who are attending our in-person faculty development workshops on cyberforensics.  In these workshops faculty will use Linux and associated free/open source software for the majority of the course, so prior knowledge of Linux is preferred, but not required.  

 

The videos should give you just enough of a background so that we can move smoothly through the workshop, without spending too much time learning Linux.

 

Before attending the workshops I strongly encourage you to view the video lectures and following along with what I'm doing. You will need to download and install VirutalBox and a distribution of Linux to follow along.  Virtualbox is a program that allows a student to run Linux within another operating system (Windows/Macintosh, etc.) Don't worry, I've created videos that demonstrate how to download and install VirtualBox, as well as how to create a virtual machine and install Linux within the virtual machine.  

 

You may wish to watch each video once, then rewatch the video and follow along with what I'm doing.  Note that you can right-click on the links below and use Save As ... to download the videos to your local drive.

 

These workshops were created as part of a grant from the National Science Foundation ATE program (DUE1204800), the Advanced Cyberforensics Education Consortium, headquartered at Daytona State College, Florida.
