SANS DFIR Lethal Forensicator Coin Holders
Holders of the Lethal Forensicator Coins are properly trained incident responders or investigators who sometimes represent the only defense an organization has in place during a compromise or a complex digital investigation. These analysts know what they are up against and continually strive to further not only their own knowledge, but also the knowledge of the entire digital forensics field.
Lethal Forensicator Coins are awarded to those who show exceptional talent, make outstanding contributions to the field, or demonstrate leadership in the digital forensics profession and community.
If you are one of the rare students who has been awarded the hard-earned Lethal Forensicator Coin, find your name in the sections below
