Part 1 of 3: Starting A Digital Forensic Business
" First say to yourself what you would be; and then do what you have to do.”
-Epictetus
Interestingly, I still get inquiries about starting a digital forensic business, even after penning an article entitled “ So You Want to Start a Digital Forensic Business ” over 5 years ago, wherein I cautioned would-be entrepreneurs about setting up their own shop, using personal anecdotes of essentially what not to do. Since then, a lot has changed.
My company was acquired by a larger, nationwide digital forensics & e-discovery provider and we’ve grown immensely in that time. Access to digital forensic tools has evolved, particularly for those of us in the private sector.
