Guide to Computer Forensics and Investigations (with DVD)

ATTENTION Ebook users!!You CAN get the DVD content still, it just does not come with the Ebook. Visit the student dashboard on cengage's website, signup, and search for free tools using the ISBN to get a link. It is IMPORTANT to download these files ASAP since the access to the files expires after a couple weeks. I was pretty annoyed as well when I realized that the DVD content was not included, after doing some searching I found how to get it. Don't be discouraged, if you want the Ebook, grab it in confidence!4 stars since it is not the clearest regarding the DVD material with zero help on how to get it. *I will update the review after my class to reflect the actual content in it.*Hope this helps!-Rob K.

You can get DVD content from the Cengage site by creating an account and searching tools by the ISBM and downloading the free tools for the book. Only four out of five because they don't provide any instructions or other means for you to know what to do but by reading another person's post I did what he said and I found the content. Don't despair you can get it too.

The book is concise, I certaily like the challenge that book present on the Hand-On Projrects. Chapter three is a little challenge, to all the book is full of knowledge, you need to have lot pacient and time to really read every chapter of the book. My only regret about this book (Fifth Edition) the Forensics videos were not included as in Fourth Editon. Also I boughted on Amazon and I did not get the code to register on WWW.CENGAGE.COM

I liked that it gave you exercises that actually had you go through and perform the different functions.

Good for starting out with learning aspects of digital forensics investigations including the legal aspects and considerations in conducting forensics. It is also a good source for forensic tools and exercises to understand how to use these tools.

Some of the information in this book is dated, but it is presented in a way that guides the reader to find up-to-date information. This book is good for both learning and for future reference material.

I am using this as a text in my graduate forensics course. The information is easy to follow and understand.Even though the seller is in the UK, delivery was in the range quoted at purchase. You can't beat their price on a new copy.

It had good material. I did get this for light reading however. It was a required school textbook and it did the job. Comes with much needed CD for the class.
