Curso virtual “Introducción al Análisis Forense de Evidencias
Digitales e Incidentes de Ciberseguridad”

Fecha de inicio: 8 de Agosto de 2022

Docente: Dra. Ing. Beatriz P. de Gallo. Especialista en Informática
Forense

Descripción: Propone capacitar a los asistentes dotándolos de
conocimientos, metodologías y herramientas que le permitan iniciarse
en el análisis forense digital, tanto en el ámbito de las pericias
informáticas como en el contexto de los incidentes de
ciberseguridad.

Fundamentos: La Forensia Digital se aplica principalmente en dos
áreas: en el ámbito de la justicia mediante las pericias
informáticas con la inclusión de las evidencias digitales, y en el
ámbito empresarial cuando se analizan incidentes de seguridad
informática y/o ciberseguridad. En ambos casos, es sustancial el
proceso de recolección de evidencias digitales, así como el rigor
procedimental y científico de la actuación del analista forense.

Si bien la Informática Forense se inicia en los 90 cuando desde el
ámbito de la justicia se requieren Peritos Informáticos con la
aparición de las primeras evidencias digitales, hoy en día, el
grado de avance de la inseguridad informática requiere de la
formación de especialista en el abordaje e investigación de
incidentes de ciberseguridad.

Con la intención de iniciar al asistente en la realización del
Análisis Forense Digital, se presenta el contexto de la Forensia
Digital y se lo capacitará dotándolos de conocimientos,
metodologías y herramientas que les permitan comprender acerca del
rol, alcance y responsabilidades de quienes deseen actuar como Perito
Informático y/o Analista Forense Digital.

Se abordarán cuestiones pluridisciplinarias que promueven un
análisis forense más eficiente cuando se aborda desde el campo
judicial, conformando equipos de trabajo con profesionales del área
del derecho, la criminalística y las fuerzas de seguridad. Y
también se brindará una base de conocimiento adecuada y suficiente
sobre gestión de incidentes de ciberseguridad.

Objetivos:

Al finalizar el curso, se pretende que el asistente sea capaz de:

•Conocer acerca del estado del arte de la Forensia Digital

•Conocer acerca de las cuestiones básicas del Derecho Procesal
aplicable a la realización de pericias informáticas

•Desarrollar y explicar las características básicas del contexto
de las Pericias Informáticas y de los incidentes de Ciberseguridad

•Comprender las fases del análisis forense digital

•Comprender y desarrollar las guías metodológicas más usuales
para realizar el análisis forense digital.

•Identificar y aplicar el proceso de tratamiento de la evidencia
digital en todas sus etapas.

•Utilizar y evaluar diferentes herramientas forenses.

Dirigido a: Profesionales informáticos, Peritos informáticos,
Responsables del área de Seguridad TI, Abogados, Lic. en
Criminalística, Fuerzas de Seguridad responsables de obtención y
análisis de evidencia digital.
