But overall, these technical value add to cissp which is more of a security generalist. Forensic solution such as encase digital adminstrator will definitely be very sought after on term og cyber forensic investigator

I already have my CISSP and several security analyst certs; now my company is wanting to get into computer forensics. <br />
<br />
Is there like a gold standard for forensics certs right now? Googling for it returns a bunch of shoddy sites with certs that look like they made the program just to hop on the money bandwagon along with the SANS class which is hefty in price.<br />
<br />
I would love a point in the right direction. <br />
<br />
Thanks!

Forensics certifications

Digital forensics encompasses the recovery and investigation of material found in digital devices, often in relation to computer crime. Digital forensics investigations have a variety of applications. The most common is to support or refute a hypothesis before criminal or civil (as part of the electronic discovery process) courts. The technical aspect of an investigation is divided into several sub-branches, relating to the type of digital devices involved; computer forensics, network forensics, forensic data analysis and mobile device forensics. The typical forensic process encompasses the seizure, forensic imaging (acquisition) and analysis of digital media and the production of a report into collected evidence.
