" exercises in the book - making this book useless: ( I will update my critics here if ...
By Ralf Brune
This is surely a very interesting book but it seems I bought it to early. There is lot of digital content needed for the book, the book tells you to register it and download the content by "Click on the 'Access Bonus Content' link". However there is no such link. I have other books registered at PearsonITcertification, and some of them have that link, but not Computer Forensics Investigation. Without being able to download the digital content you are not able to do all the "Let's get Practical!" exercises in the book - making this book useless :(
I will update my critics here if there are any news in this matter.

Technical Book Written Like a Great Mystery Novel
By Bob Monroe
Whenever I look at buying a book I look at the price of the book after I have flipped through a few pages. I want to know if the object I’m interested in is worth the cost associated with it. Money doesn’t grow on trees but books are made of trees so the riddle goes around and around in my head. I need to know if that $65.00 book is going to bring a me return on investment somehow. Will buying that book make me a better professional or will it bring me enough enjoyment to warrant spending that amount of money? In the case of A practical Guide to Computer Forensic Investigations written by Dr. Darren R. Hayes, the answer is at the end of my review.
When I get a technical book I usually read a few pages throughout, bouncing around from chapter to chapter to get a feel for the book and how it was designed before I settle in to read the entire manual. Dr. Hayes didn’t give me that opportunity because the first pages drew me in almost like a mystery novel. I couldn’t put the darn thing down. The only reason I noticed this was because I coughed and saw the time on the clock. I was on page 139 and my highlighter was worn out.
Somehow the author managed to entice me with page after page of incredible information that I failed to adhere to my normal reading ritual of bouncing around. And I didn’t even notice until I was on page 139. In that space of time, I switched out highlighters because my orange one dried up with over usage and I lost four hours of sleep. For example, during the Enron Oil scandal of 2001 the employees there shredded thousands of pages of documents but FBI forensic investigators were able to retrieve the equivalent to 10 times the size of the U.S. Library of Congress from hard drives. That’s a whole lot of data recovery.
Here’s another tidbit: Microsoft’s COFEE program only works properly if the system is captured live and hasn’t been powered down. This book goes into a large segment of live resident memory data recovery, all written in vivid detail by Dr. Hayes. Did you know that Bitlocker only activates when the device is shut down or the Bitlocker USB drive is removed? That’s how the FBI was able to capture all that data from the recent Silk Road operator. The suspect was at a restaurant with his back to the door when federal agents swept in from behind and grabbed him and his laptop before he knew what happened. His computer was fully logged on and his encryption unlocked.
A Practical Guide to Computer Forensic Investigations goes into some of the basics of forensic investigation, as you might expect, but then dives into registry analysis, hard drive composition, file indexing, email event archives and pages after page of incredible information. Dr. Hayes writes long and in-depth about the differences between each version of Windows. He covers how each File Allocation Table (FAT) is different and what the examiner needs to consider based on the OS and update. While this topic alone could easily take up an entire book, Dr. Hayes manages to blanket Linux, and iOS too.
This is just the tip of the iceberg. Practical Guide to Computer Forensic Investigations also discusses the differences between media formats and how you need to consider your connections for evidence gathering. Many other forensic books cover this same topic but none do as good of a job as this author does. Wait until you see Dr. Hayes idea of a computer tool kit, besides including a soldering iron and wrenches, I could almost swear I saw a blow torch and a surgical knife. He doesn’t mess around. What kind of doctor is this guy?
Most of the software tools mentioned in the book are your typical commercial deep-lined pocket tools. For those of us without fat wallets, the good doctor adds plenty of free or open source tools that do the same thing as the expensive ones. In fact, many of the free tools work better. Dr. Hayes is very serious when he points out that you need to have you own set of tools and know those tools well. You need to know how your tools work before you have to use them in real cases. This may sound like common sense but you don’t want to be called out by a legal team as a sworn expert witness only to have them make you look like an idiot because you didn’t add the –d switch when you ran your acquisition tool.
Be aware that some of the information is a bit disturbing because the author made sure to include plenty of real life examples of crimes. Child exploitation, murder and physical harm are cases that have the reader reminded that this isn’t a hobby. The guilt or innocence of someone may rest on your shoulders as an investigator. Dr. Hayes brings up the team concept of working alongside other professionals who are building that case with you. It is your responsibility to conduct your portion of the investigation with as much knowledge as you can offer. This book is a huge part of your knowledge base.
Many new devices are part of the evidence collection process. This guide doesn’t linger on just desktop or laptop machines. There is 501 pages of content that ranges from cellular signal interception, SIM card reading, different tablet operating systems, Android forensics, iPhone data analysis, RIM data acquisition, photo researching, Bluetooth data storage locations and everything in-between. These aren’t merely mentioned as part of a paragraph, they are written about with extensive background information.
This guide meets my criteria for a desk top reference book. I don’t have much space on my desk so space is at a premium. I don’t even have room for speakers so I manage (if you want to call it that) my little space based on how often I use a particular object. For books, I only have three books that have made it to a permanent spot on my desk. The other hundreds of books I have are stashed in the book cases above my desk, daring to collapse at any moment. A Practical Guide to Computer Forensic Investigations has earned a coveted spot on my desk. This means I have to get rid of my computer or move another hard drive to the attic. Some people give awards for great books, I give room for great books.
So to answer the question of whether the book is worth the price, my answer is no, it is worth twice that amount.

By Roman4N6
Computer Forensics Investigations covers many different specialty areas including legal, documentation and technical procedures which need to be accurately followed in order to achieve a successful investigation. This book is an excellent source which covers many if not all of these key areas. It should be part of every Computer Forensic student's book collection as well as in Computer Forensic Labs. The non-working link only reflects one "Let's Get Practical" exercise which DOES NOT make the book useless. This seems to be a publisher oversight which I'm sure will get corrected soon. Don't let this stop you from getting this book. Even if that link never work at all, the book is still a must have in my opinion.
