Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello everyone, and welcome to Cybertrace. Have you ever stopped
to wonder what happens in the hidden corners of a
network after a cyber attack, or how a digital detective
can piece together a trail of evidence from a flood
of data. That powerful invisible art of finding, analyzing, and
responding to digital footprints is exactly what we're here to explore.

or simply pause and rewind whenever a concept needs a
second pass. Our first episode will focus on the foundational
principles of incident response, the critical steps to take when
a security event occurs. We'll then move on to network forensics,

forensic tools, mobile forensics, and the legal and ethical frameworks
that govern the work of a digital detective. I'm genuinely
looking forward to exploring this material with you. Let's begin
