Dealing with the organisational aspects of incident handling and forensics may sound like dry paperwork far away from the technical details of day-to-day sysadmins tasks. However, organisational preparation can help tremendously in the course of an investigation. For example answering simple practical questions like "who's in charge?" or "what are we looking for?", even "why are we doing this?". This module introduces the basic steps of incident handling and forensic investigations and introduces attendees to the principles of forensic investigations that should be adhered to for an investigation to succeed.

So you or someone in your organisation notices "unusual system behaviour" or "suspicious network traffic" but you are not sure what to do about it? The first step in incident response usually is to ascertain whether or not the activity observed really is an incident. While there is no formal process or definition for doing so, there's a large number of locations for possible indicators to look for that may eventually make an incident. Participants will learn what the first steps to take after a compromise has been detected.

Whatever malware is doing on a computer, the code to carry out its activity has to be in the random access memory (RAM). And not only this, lots of other interesting stuff is present there too: IP-addresses of computers it has communicated with, data from attacks against other systems or even exfiltrated data. By getting information directly from the storage, compromised operating system components can be bypassed. No wonder that investigating transient memory has become a hot topic in IT forensics over the last decade. But before memory contents can be scrutinized, they will have to be acquired from the computer. This webinar covers the basic principles and techniques behind memory acquisition on Linux, Windows and MacOS operating systems.

Whatever malware is doing on a computer, the code to carry out its activity has to be in the random access memory (RAM). No wonder that investigating transient memory has become a hot topic in IT forensics over the last decade. The previous webinar covered the basic, agnostic technique of acquiring memory through the use of kernel drivers and copying tools. However, it required access to the operating system with root or administrator privileges. This webinar covers advanced techniques that will relinquish some of these preconditions and are in some cases be better suited for doing the job of memory acquisition.
