We live in a world where crimes no longer need fingerprints—they leave behind digital trails. Crime has gone virtual, from data breaches to email scams and ransomware attacks to financial frauds. But the good news? So has forensic science.
If you have a knack for tech, a curious mind, and a desire to investigate the “invisible,” then the Cyber Forensic Investigation Diploma is designed with you in mind. It’s the perfect blend of technology and justice—giving you the skills to trace, track, and decode digital evidence that others might overlook.
And the best part? It’s 100% online, self-paced, and led by seasoned forensic experts.
Cyber forensics—also called digital forensics—is the field that investigates crimes committed via computers, mobile phones, or networks. It’s the science of retrieving, preserving, analyzing, and presenting digital evidence from electronic devices.
Think of it as modern-day detective work, but instead of magnifying glasses and crime scenes, you’re analyzing hard drives, email headers, and IP logs.
Whether it’s hacking, identity theft, online defamation, cyberbullying, or corporate espionage—cyber forensic experts are the ones who uncover the digital truth.
You're already a step ahead if you already have a background in IT, networking, cybersecurity, or computer applications.
What this diploma does is refine your existing tech skills into investigative power.
You’ll learn how to spot tampered metadata, analyze deleted files, reconstruct timelines of cyber activity, and ensure digital evidence stands up in court. It’s the kind of training that makes your tech skills valuable and legally impactful.
This program is designed for modern learners: flexible, practical, and easy to fit into your schedule.
Self-paced learning — Study on your time, at your pace
Recorded expert-led sessions — Learn from real forensic professionals
Hands-on case studies — Practice real-world investigation techniques
Access anytime, anywhere — No commuting, no deadlines
Optional workshops — For those who want in-person, lab-based practice
Whether you're upskilling for a better job, exploring a forensic career path, or looking to start freelancing in the cyber investigation, you can begin this diploma on your laptop today.
This isn’t surface-level theory—it’s a deep dive into the forensic side of cybercrime. Here’s a snapshot of the topics covered:

Discover how smartphones store data, how to extract WhatsApp messages, GPS logs, deleted texts, call records, and more—even from locked devices.
Investigate IP-based crimes, sniff network traffic, and trace data movement in cloud environments. You’ll learn to follow the data trail through routers, logs, and remote servers.
Dive into how online harassment, defamation, and impersonation cases are handled through forensic techniques.
Study how criminals try to cover their tracks—and how forensic tools counter their methods.
Get trained in presenting findings, writing forensic reports, and maintaining chain of custody.

There’s no need for prior forensic knowledge. If you’re familiar with computers and eager to learn digital investigation techniques, you’re ready.
You’ll be trained in the use of widely accepted tools used by forensic investigators:
Autopsy & Sleuth Kit – For disk and file system analysis
FTK Imager – For capturing and analyzing digital evidence
Cellebrite UFED – Mobile forensics and data recovery
Wireshark – For network packet analysis
Volatility – RAM forensics
Hashing and encryption tools – For data integrity
You'll learn what these tools do, how to use them in different scenarios, and how to interpret the results.
After completing this diploma, you’ll be able to:
- Assist in corporate or law enforcement cybercrime cases
- Perform independent digital forensic investigations
- Analyze cyber frauds, online harassment, and data leaks
- Advise organizations on incident response and evidence preservation
- Work with legal teams to build solid cases based on digital proof
