SUMMARY:Drone Forensics™ Course
DESCRIPTION:High Tech Crime Institute (HTCI) offers\, training\, software a
 nd consultation.  See HTCI's latest tools at http://www.gohtci.com\, trai
 ning.gohtci.com\, dart.gohtci.com\, and maplink.gohtci.com.\n\nDrone Foren
 sics - This three-day course is designed to take the investigator deep int
 o the world of Drone Forensics. You will learn to Collect\, Preserve\, Exa
 mine and Report evidence found within the Drone Device.\n\nThe use of Dron
 es is growing rapidly and expanding to criminal enterprises and terrorist 
 organizations. Police Corrections Facilities and deployed militaries are d
 ealing with drones on a regular basis. Read the news today and you are lik
 ely to find an article discussing the malicious use of a Drone. Strategies
  and techniques to properly collect and examine these devices are not wide
 ly known\, leaving investigators with the following challenges:\n\n 	How d
 o you collect Drones?\n 	How do you extract data from these devices?\n 	Ho
 w do you report the information?\n 	How do you prove criminal intent and a
 ssociate it to an individual as oppose to the wind pushing the device off 
 route?\n\nMany investigators today stop after retrieving videos\, then hop
 e they have software to extract them. Drones do much more than record vide
 o\, they can transport illegal payload like drugs and weapons\, but also d
 eliver munitions or act as the projectile!\nThis course will cover all of 
 these questions and more and will give you the skills to Collect\, Preserv
 e\, Examine\, and Report (CPER) the hidden intelligence within a Drone. In
  addition\, you will leave with the skills necessary to testify in court a
 nd to de-velop strategies to collect data residing on these mobile platfor
 m as they evolve.\n\n&nbsp\;

 sics - This three-day course is designed to take the investigator deep int
 o the world of Drone Forensics. You will learn to Collect\, Preserve\, Exa
 mine and Report evidence found within the Drone Device.\n\nThe use of Dron
 es is growing rapidly and expanding to criminal enterprises and terrorist 
 organizations. Police Corrections Facilities and deployed militaries are d
 ealing with drones on a regular basis. Read the news today and you are lik
 ely to find an article discussing the malicious use of a Drone. Strategies
  and techniques to properly collect and examine these devices are not wide
 ly known\, leaving investigators with the following challenges:\n\n 	How d
 o you collect Drones?\n 	How do you extract data from these devices?\n 	Ho
 w do you report the information?\n 	How do you prove criminal intent and a
 ssociate it to an individual as oppose to the wind pushing the device off 
 route?\n\nMany investigators today stop after retrieving videos\, then hop
 e they have software to extract them. Drones do much more than record vide
 o\, they can transport illegal payload like drugs and weapons\, but also d
 eliver munitions or act as the projectile!\nThis course will cover all of 
 these questions and more and will give you the skills to Collect\, Preserv
 e\, Examine\, and Report (CPER) the hidden intelligence within a Drone. In
  addition\, you will leave with the skills necessary to testify in court a
 nd to de-velop strategies to collect data residing on these mobile platfor
 m as they evolve.\n\n&nbsp\;
