This project involves a strong education-industry-government group whose primary concern is industry's critical information infrastructure. Given that there is a lack of national framework for curricula and training development in digital forensics education, this project cuts across disciplines to generate a new knowledge set including security management and law enforcement perspectives. The project has three main objectives: (1) collaboration between faculty in computing and faculty in the Criminal Justice Department to develop new curricula in digital forensics for a certificate and/or A.S. degree in Computer Security and Investigations; (2) development of laboratory modules, which facilitates community college students' education for technician jobs in digital forensics, including the creation of CDs for training and tutorials; and (3) running of community-wide symposia to disseminate information to the general population about computer security and digital forensics. Unique features include (1) linkage with government agencies, companies, and other academic institutions through the Advisory Council; (2) cutting across disciplines to teach a hybrid mix of skills; (3) courses designed as modular courses to be offered as short courses or workshops for professional development for educators; and (4) website and web-based facilities that support the project, academic program, courses, and distance learning.

该项目涉及一个强大的教育-工业-政府小组，其主要关注的是工业的关键信息基础设施。鉴于缺乏数字取证教育课程和培训开发的国家框架，该项目跨越学科，以产生一套新的知识，包括安全管理和执法视角。该项目有三个主要目标：（1）计算机系和刑事司法部系之间的合作，为证书和/或A.S.开发新的数字取证课程。这些活动包括：（1）设立电脑保安及调查学位课程;（2）发展实验室课程，以协助社区学院的学生接受数码鉴证技术员的教育，包括制作培训及辅导光碟;及（3）举办社区范围的研讨会，向市民大众宣传电脑保安及数码鉴证的知识。独特的特点包括：（1）通过咨询理事会与政府机构、公司和其他学术机构建立联系;（2）跨学科教授混合技能;（3）设计成模块课程的课程，作为短期课程或讲习班提供给教育工作者，促进专业发展;以及（4）支持项目、学术计划、课程和远程学习的网站和基于网络的设施。
