Magnet Forensics Programs

(Pre-Conference)

Wednesday, May 29 – Saturday, June 1

This course is ideal for those who require intermediate-level training with a digital investigation platform that covers cases involving smartphones, tablets, computers, and cloud data in a single collaborative interface. Students will gain a deep understanding of the benefits Magnet AXIOM’s “artifact first” approach in optimizing investigative efficiency. This course is the perfect entry point for examiners who are new to AXIOM.
 
Magnet AXIOM Examinations (AX200) is an intermediate-level course, designed for participants who are familiar with the principles of digital forensics, and seeking to use Magnet AXIOM for their investigations. At the conclusion of the four-day training course, participants will have the knowledge and skills they need to acquire forensic images from computers, tablets, smartphones, and cloud evidence; configure Magnet AXIOM Process to recover the most-relevant artifacts; use Magnet AXIOM Examine to explore the evidence in greater depth, simplifying analysis activities by intuitively linking facts and data; and, preparing key artifacts for collaboration with other stakeholders. Each module of instruction employs extensive scenario-based exercises, to reinforce the learning objectives, and further enhance the participant’s understanding of AXIOM’s functionality, and its application within the forensic workflow.

Wednesday, May 29 – Saturday, June 1

This course is an expert-level four-day training course, designed for participants who are familiar with the principles of digital forensics and who are seeking to leverage Magnet AXIOM and Magnet ACQUIRE to improve their mobile device investigations.

Magnet AXIOM Advanced Mobile Forensics details the use of Magnet AXIOM’s imaging abilities, using the standard mobile device imaging methodologies as well as advanced imaging techniques like TWRP and recovery image flashing when things don’t go as expected or when you encounter locked devices.

For those occasions when even those approaches won’t work, this class also introduces the concepts of ISP, JTAG, and chip-off methodologies to gain access to the data on mobile devices. After obtaining access to the data, participants will leverage Magnet AXIOM Examine to explore the contents and leverage AXIOM’s hallmark ability to reveal a wealth of important investigative artifacts.

These modules of instruction will build the participants abilities to investigate mobile devices from: image acquisition, utilizing backups found on computer media, understanding mobile device operating systems, Plists and SQL lite databases, to locating and parsing apps that are unsupported by forensic applications through developing custom artifacts.

Because AX300 is an expert-level course, it is recommended that students first complete Magnet AXIOM Examinations (AX200). AX200 will provide a thorough understanding of AXIOM that will help students focus on the mobile part of investigations in AX300. AX200 is also offered at Techno Security Myrtle Beach for pre-conference training (see above).

If you have successfully completed the AXIOM Examinations (AX200) training course previously, or will be participating in the AX200 pre-conference training class at Techno Security this year, join us on Sunday, June 2 to write the MCFE-AXIOM exam which will be offered free of charge in room Atlantic 2.

The Magnet Certified Forensics Examiner (MCFE) certification is an accreditation that showcases an examiners’ expert-level competence with Magnet Forensics products to peers, internal stakeholders and external audiences, including legal teams or clients.

The exam will take no longer than 120 minutes and is comprised of two parts: a set of knowledge-based questions around the functions of Magnet AXIOM and a practical-based set of questions using a prepared evidence set. You’ll need to score 80% with 75 questions total. If you currently have a MCFE, you’ll have a two-year certification period. If you’re nearing the end of that period, you can recertify at Techno Security with a 50-question test delivered over 90 minutes.

Submit your application at the link below to register for the MCFE-AXIOM exam that we will be offering onsite at Techno Security Myrtle Beach.

Note: The prerequisite for MCFE-AXIOM is the successful completion of the AXIOM Examinations (AX200) course.
