The EnCase Certified Examiner (EnCE) certification indicates that a forensic examiner has in-depth forensics experience and has mastered the use of the EnCase during complex digital investigations. The certification examination is composed of two parts:
- A written exam that must be passed with a score of 80% or better.
- A hands-on practical exam that must be passed with a score of 85% or better.
The best preparation for the written exam is to attend the EnCE Prep Course offered by Guidance Software. This intense, three-day course provides in-depth coverage of the topics that are covered on the written exam and provides a good refresher for the basic investigative concepts that must be used for the practical examination.
Another excellent resource for the written examination is The Official EnCE Study Guide by Steve Bunting and William Wei. Both authors have obtained the EnCE certification and have vast experience in computer forensic investigations.
After passing the written examination, Guidance software will send you the practical examination along with the evidence file(s) to be used and a test version of EnCase. The practical examination tests the fundamental skills that are required during computer forensic investigations and requires dexterity with EnCase. If you fail the practical portion of the exam, you must wait two months and then start the examination process again by retaking both the written and practical exams.
The EnCE practical exam is challenging even for the experienced forensic examiner and requires significant research. The Forensic Secrets eBook is a concise guide to passing the EnCE practical. It is packed with the information that you need to know to obtain the EnCE certification and is an excellent resource to add to any forensic investigators library.
