As a person with a B.S. in Computer forensics, I suggest working as help desk or apply for local law enforcement while studying. "Entry level" is rare unless you can network the crap out of yourself in the industry. This is where I have struggled the most regardless of my knowledge base. Not saying its impossible but a lot harder if you just want to jump into it. I'm a bit jaded at this point.
In steps I would recommend 1) Cyber degree or cert. 2) Experience (helpdesk, internship, law enforcement). 3) Digital forensics
2 years out of school and yet to land that spot. Currently scrambling to rework my approach.
Im on my final semester for my cyber security digital forensics masters degree. The has been a fun degree to get. Data recovery and mining. Learning about the law. Some really cool things and tech to use.
what school did you go to? and is it online?
@corrinehuffman784 the university of Alabama at Birmingham. It was a hybrid course path% some online and some in class.
Great video. I don't think Cyber Security and Digital Forensics are the same though, certainly not in the UK. Your explanations of DF is spot on. The way I see it, like any forensics. Police forensic division are gathering evidence, post-crime. Police services are trying to stop crime, so pre-crime and it's the same with people working in Cyber Security pre-computer crime v DF post-crime. I did a university course in "Digital Forensics and Cyber Analysis" it was good fun, but I'm not as good as I want to be.
Hi! :) I just heard about computer forensics careers. This is the first video that came up in my search. Thanks for the info! I'll be looking at your other videos.
hey nicole! you such a great youtuber and teacher. keep it on
I did a cybersecurity bootcamp with NYU that taught computer forensics, I'm looking for a remote position. Thanks Nicole, Great video as always.
Thanks Michael. Appreciate it
Great straight forward info. Thanks
This is a great run down of this career path! I'll have to share with my mentees - thanks Nicole!
Thanks for the appreciation!
I am taking Digital Forensics now as part of my Associates degree in Cybersecurity. I like using Autopsy 🐕🐕🐕🐕🐕🐕🐕🐕🐕🐕🐕🐕
Thank you again for the research and inspiration!
Any time!
Can't wait to see the playlist, thank you Honey
You are so welcome
Thanks Nicole! You're awesome!!
Thanks John!
3 years ago a Psychic told me that I was going to end up in Digital Forensics and I would get lots of recognition for my skills. Today I'm struggling to find the motivation to even pass the A+ exam 😣 procrastination a curse.. This sounds interesting though, I'm going to get it together
Thank for sharing. Procrastination can eat up years
Just start tomorrow
your videos on how to study for CompTIA certs have been super helpful, thank you!
Glad you like them!
Thank you for this video, I have worked with Eclipse Forensics, they are great at what they do!
Wonderful!
Taking a digital forensic class now with my cyber associates. It is an interesting course that is a bit different than your typical security class. Defiantly am open to paths
It's a great cybesecurity pathway
Hello, thanks a lot for sharing. When you work for a government agency, I understand that you analyze criminals' devices, but do you do the same in the private sector?
Thank you for sharing your perspective on this career. I am completing my MSc in Forensic Accounting degree and building my next career. I am looking into DFIR which I had found out about a week ago, or any similar investigator careers like the one you are explaining especially involving data and technology because I am interested helping from the technological side like wire fraud, cyber fraud, etc. I am looking at how to get started.

Hi Nicole. Thanks for your videos. I work in the Automotive industry, in cyber security for a few years now. I work mostly in developing security controls for microcontrollers. I never did any certifications until now. At least Automotive companies in Germany are not asking for certifications. Nevertheless, after watching your videos, I want to do a certification . My question is: If i do certifications in S+ ,digital forensics or GRC, do i still have to start my career from scratch in a new domain?
Hi nicole ,I'm from Australia i want to get in to cyber security.please advise me..what are the entry level courses? Thank you 🙏
Hi, what role has the least amount of human interaction?
depends on the company.
Interesting really enjoyed the insightful currently I am getting my degree in computer forensic & digital investigation from Champlain College very good program for someone who wants to get a degree and want to start a career in computer forensic
hey, is there any programming language requried in cyber forensics ? if yes then what are thoes....
Hi Nicole! Can i go direktly to CySa+ or BTL1 after Google IT Professional?
Hi Nicole. Thanks for the informative video! 👍
I'm currently studying for my CompTIA A+ Certification exam. Please wish me luck 🤞
Best of luck!
Should I start Digital Forensics with a BS in cloud computing or cybersecurity from WGU or just digital forensic itself from champlin college??
Which country is best to do masters in cyber forensics or digital forensics?
EC council's CHFI and GIAC forensic examiner certs are also there.
I considered those. the GIAC cert is around $7000 dollars. CHFI is expensive and not widely known
@Nicole Enesse you get 2 course for 6K, BUNDLE one
Strange you say nothing about the mental impact this job can have that some poeple do not realise. If you are dealing with law enforcement, you are dealing with criminals, and you WILL eventually see some really messed up stuff. I have a friend that did this for 8 months and quit. He had to see a psychologist and really left an impact on him. This job isnt all sunshine and rainbows.
Yes, that is true but not all
If anyone’s curious the government itself offers courses and certifications on NICCS.
nice 👍
Thank you! Cheers!
About Cert I think SANS got the best courses and certifications and real job skills
Does it have a way I can privately contact for career advice?
That would be greatly appreciated maybe a email address or something? Twitter anything like that
Hello! Your video was super informative, I want to pursue this career, but I am currently going for a degree in computer science. Most people mention getting one in cyber security for this job, Is it okay that I'm doing computer science or will it not really help me with this field?
I have the same question about my Applied Mathematics degree that I’m trying to get.
great content, have you had a career in or near forensics?
Hey Bert! How is helpdesk? No, I haven't worked in Forensics
@@nicoleenesse held desk was amazing! More than I could have imagined and I learned a ton! Seriously a great way to start out building the computer concepts and understanding. Learning how to take care of people is priceless, EMPHASIZE that!!! Cannot stress the importance soft/people skills plays a role in tech jobs. Also learning how to set up and deploy devices. What made the job cooler was it was at the hard Rock casinos and what a great environment and company to get knowledge and experience from. I had to leave as it was very difficult for me to be at fulltime school/work, my grades suffered a bit and I have the fortune of not having to work being prior military using the voc rehab program for school. I admire all those who are having to do both. I cannot stress how important even 5 months of IT help desk boosted my knowledge and inevitably my career
@@nicoleenesse thank you for remembering me!
👽🤙 thanks
Aye Arnold!!
I have CHFI certificate. I am from india. Can i get job aboard without any experience
I am not familiar with that job market
Where is the free course?
In the process of making it. It will be out shortly
@@nicoleenesse you are awesome
@@nicoleenesse will you make an announcement once it come out? I'd be super interested since I'm just about to graduate from WGU and will be looking to break into the cybersecurity field

It's obvious she is not in Digital Forensics. She is reading from a script
This is my first time seeing your video. I enjoyed the content and the breakdown of DF and how to go about it. Nicole, thank you for the fantastic video. On the other hand, what do you think of EC-Council certifications ECIH, CHFI & DFE ? Are they globally renowned, and should they be pursued because other courses from SANS or GIAC are expensive?
