EC-Council’s CHFI Certification Receives the Coveted ANSI Accreditation
CHFI is the latest to join the group of ANSI accredited certifications from EC-Council.
- Albuquerque, NM (1888PressRelease) May 04, 2018 - In major efforts to educate, certify, and validate digital forensics experts across the globe, EC-Council’s celebrated certification, Computer Hacking Forensics Investigator (CHFI), has now become more desirable, recently receiving the prestigious ANSI accreditation. EC-Council now adds CHFI to its existing list of ANSI accredited certifications, which include their flagship certification, Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH), and their executive (C-level) certification, Certified Chief Information Security Officer (CCISO).
ANSI is a private non-profit organization that administers and coordinates the U.S. voluntary standardization and conformity assessment system. It is the official U.S. representative to the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and, via the U.S. National Committee, the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC). It is also a member of the International Accreditation Forum (IAF). This accreditation enhances EC-Council’s ANSI accreditations across cybersecurity domains of Core, Specialist, and Management level certification programs, while significantly strengthening the status of CHFI.
EC-Council’s CHFI certification certifies individuals in specific security disciplines of computer forensics from a vendor-neutral perspective. CHFI will fortify the application knowledge of law enforcement personnel, system administrators, security officers, defense and military personnel, legal professionals, bankers, security professionals, and anyone who is concerned about the integrity of their network infrastructure.
In the event of a cyber-attack or incident, it is critical that investigations be carried out in a manner that is forensically sound to preserve evidence in the event of a breach of the law. Far too many cyber-attacks are occurring across the globe where laws are clearly broken and due to improper or non-existent forensic investigations, the cyber-criminals either go unidentified, undetected, or are simply not prosecuted.
Cybersecurity professionals who acquire a firm grasp on the principles of digital forensics can become invaluable members of Incident Handling and Incident response teams. The Computer Hacking Forensic Investigator course provides a strong baseline knowledge of key concepts and practices in the digital forensic domains relevant to today’s organizations.
