New Partner for Computer Forensics and Cyber Security
ForensIQ, Inc has a new partner! Paul Woodie, who recently retired from the US Department of Defense, is a Computer Forensic Expert and Consultant with years of experience in the field. He also teaches a three-day, hands-on course that delivers information about identity theft, viruses, malware, and cyber intrusions into our critical infrastructures (e.g., power grid, financial systems, etc.). Most criminal offenses today have a computer involved somehow either directly in the crime scene or indirectly associated with the criminal behavior. Too often, the contents of the computer is overlooked by investigators, or the capabilities of an experienced computer forensics expert is unknown. ForensIQ now has this expertise, and they are excited to have Mr. Woodie as a partner. Welcome Paul!
