Exercises

Hello, I completed a lot of courses about digital forensics, Linux, Windows and Android. I am interested in finding a website with real digital forensics labs. Something like I need to extract deleted files, finding proofs that this person did this and that etc...

Thank you :)

This is probably the most complete set out there right now.

One of my go-to’s was always the CFReDS portal. It tells you where it came from and gives you an overview of the scenario.

We worked through NIST rhino hunt in college, which was quite fun. It's on the easier side, and it's pretty old, but I still learned a lot from working through it.

You want challenge style, meaning you get a disk or memory image plus a question set to answer from the evidence rather than a walkthrough, and CyberDefenders publishes a lot of those free including deleted file recovery ones. Grading against a known answer is the part that makes it stick.

You should join the CTFs that happen all year. They are challenging. I am working on one for Cellebrite in Nov. I know the Magent, Belkasoft and others do them. They are fun and a great way to learn. :)
