Forensic 4Cast DFIR Award for Hitchhikers Guide
🎉Exciting Announcement🎉
We are immensely proud to share that "The Hitchhiker's Guide to DFIR," a book that our Security Specialist, Guus Beckers, contributed to, has won the Best Book of the Year at the prestigious Forensic 4Cast DFIR Awards. The announcement was made at the SANS DFIR Summit, and we couldn't be more thrilled about this recognition.
A year ago, Guus joined a collaborative effort of both rookies and seasoned professionals in the field of Digital Forensics and Incident Response (DFIR) to create this valuable resource. He authored two pivotal chapters focusing on forensic acquisitions of data and strategies for scaling investigations, demonstrating his deep expertise and commitment to the field.
Nomination
The nomination for the Forensic 4Cast DFIR Book of the Year was already an incredible honor. Winning, however, is truly extraordinary and reflects the collaborative spirit and profound knowledge within our team and the wider DFIR community.
Our warmest thanks to everyone who supported this project, and to the DFIR community for their continued encouragement. This achievement is a testament to our shared dedication and passion for cybersecurity.
