The Cyber Security and Digital Forensics Laboratories simulate a professional digital forensics and cybersecurity environment. They're equipped with everything required to secure and analyse digital evidence, without leaving any trace of your analysis. Cybercrime and forensic investigations are simulated in a safe, controlled environment.

You'll access machines capable of running multiple operating systems, with root level access, on a secure closed network. You can tackle all aspects of the digital forensic process – including collection, storage, analysis and presentation of evidence. Supplementary facilities, such as evidence lockers, are also available.

Among the equipment is our autopsy table, where you can dismantle and examine computers and other devices as part of your training. High spec computers are also available to perform complex calculations required for cryptographic analysis, with the power to perform brute force work if needed.

Our facilities help graduates leave ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉú with the skills used by professional and academic investigators in cyber security and digital research, opening the way to careers in:

• network administration
• penetration testing (ethical hacking)
• forensic investigation
• data management
• malware and security analysis
• data management
