System Programming

If you are serious about digital forensics, you need to involve yourself with system programming.  It is simple...start with C programming. There are a lot of things you can do with C. Then move on to C++ and later you could also include some visuals.

I feel that Linux programming can improve your skill tremendously in system programming. C is created for system development and the birth of Linux is possible because of C itself.

So, with C system programming skill, you are able to develop Digital Forensics tool and this book can be a good reference. Some of the topics covered are as follows.

• Shell programming
• Working with files
• Linux environment
• Terminals
• Data management
• MySQL
• Development tools
• Debugging
• Programming KDE Using GTK+
