2. Computer Forensics

Forensics is a science that consists of investigations of crime scenes by collecting data of the surrounding area of the crime.  This collected data becomes physical evidence to be used in a court room.  Computer forensics work the same way.  The process of computer forensics consist of techniques to be used to preserve and analyze information on computer systems to find potential evidence for a trial.

Evidence that can be proven to found useful are things such as who has been browsing what, what someone's latest activity was, and who they've been communicating with most recently.  Computer forensics investigators also have hacking ability to see if there are any files of interest that could be used in a particular case.
