STUDENT FEATURE, Carla Morales, Cybercriminology

“Magnet Forensics labs are a wonderful learning tool and combines the attributes of cybercrime that I enjoy most. First, it allows me to work hands on with computers and other devices. Additionally, it includes social engineering, a human factor that is crucial to understanding what takes shapes within the field of cybercrime.

Working with Magnet Forensics technology has encouraged me to pursue a profession where I can conduct cybercrime penetration testing and investigations within private industry. My experiences in the ISU Cybercriminology program and working with the Magnet Forensics software have provided the confidence and knowledge needed to enter the profession and tackle the tasks ahead!”
