Course Description

With a duration of 50 hours, you will enjoy the most practical course of Digital Forensic Analysis (DFA) of RAM memory of Windows and Linux systems in the market. You will be able to do it from the comfort of your home, organizing yourself as you wish and studying at your own pace. You have a total of 12 months to finish it. The course is in Spanish.

The course covers the following types of forensic analysis:

  • RAM memory of Windows systems: In this type the analysis of RAM memory is performed through a RAM memory dump.
  • RAM memory of Linux systems: In this type, RAM memory analysis is performed by means of a RAM memory dump.
  • Malware files: In this type, the analysis of malware found embedded in the analyzed RAM memory is carried out.
  • Network traffic: In this type the analysis of incoming and outgoing network traffic is performed, looking for possible cyber-attacks (malware download, phishing, exfiltration of sensitive information, etc.).

In order to obtain the Professional Training Certificate of the course issued by “Jaymon Security”, the student must take a 20-question final exam, obtaining a pass with a percentage of correct answers equal to or higher than 75% of the exam questions, and with a time limit of 60 minutes for the completion of the exam. In addition, a practical exam of an analysis of an image of a RAM memory provided in the course must be taken, and must be passed with a minimum grade of 75%. The corresponding certificate will be provided through a badge validation platform, simplifying its presentation to various interested entities.
