Paraben- Cellphone, PDA, & Blackberry Forensic Training

“As a member of the ATF Digital Evidence Recovery Team, I was fortunate to have prior experience with Paraben’s Cell Seizure and PDA Seizure programs prior to attending the Device Seizure course. The course provided me the opportunity to work, hands-on, with phones and PDAs that I had little or no prior experience with. It also gave me valuable information related to the handling of electronic devices prior to, during and upon completion of the acquisition process. The fact that the course was taught by Bill Napieralski, a former law enforcement officer, was most beneficial in regards to courtroom preparation and testimony. Lastly, I learned that I was not using the full capabilities of the Device Seizure program and the troubleshooting tips have saved me a lot of valuable processing time.”

Paraben's Network Seizure training provides a comprehensive overview of the building blocks of Microsoft networks. This information is presented in a clear and concise manner that leaves no doubt that this is not simply a rehashed network administration class. Material presented is balanced between sufficiently detailed to understand "why" the system works the way it does and the practical "how and where" of obtaining useful evidence. Any given network seized whether through a search warrant or civil subpoena will be structured slightly differently. Understanding the "right" way to put together a network is often of little use. Forensic investigators must often learn to unravel the accumulation of years of unplanned growth. Paraben's network seizure training teaches the mind set that tools follow the uses of the investigator, they do not dictate the investigator's actions. Paraben's tools are uniquely suited to this approach because Paraben does not offer a single solution from A to Z. Paraben tools are open; that is, they allow an investigator to acquire evidence from disparate sources and make them available, not just to a central search function, but to any tool available to the investigator.
