Exciting News: Our Free Intro to DFIR Course!

CYBER 5W is thrilled to announce a significant step in our mission to grow the Digital Forensics and Incident Response (DFIR) community. Today, we’re excited to share that our introductory course, our "Intro to DFIR course", is now completely FREE for everyone.

Encouraging More People to Explore DFIR

We’ve been in the DFIR space for many years, and one thing is clear: this field needs more passionate, skilled individuals. The demand for cybersecurity professionals, especially in DFIR, continues to grow as cyber threats evolve. However, we know that many people don’t know where to start, or they might feel like it’s too complex, too expensive, or simply out of reach.

That’s why we’ve made this course free. We want to send a clear message: DFIR is not just for experts or a select few, it’s for anyone who is curious, passionate, and ready to learn.


Why This Matters

Our goal isn’t just to teach DFIR. Our goal is to inspire and encourage as many people as possible to explore this field.

  • Are you a student who’s wondering if cybersecurity might be the right path for you?
  • Are you a professional looking to pivot into a new role or expand your knowledge?
  • Are you someone who’s always been curious about how cyber incidents are investigated?

If so, this course is for you. We designed it to provide a solid introduction to DFIR, covering the basics, introducing tools and techniques, and giving you the confidence to take that first step into this exciting domain.

Why Free?

DFIR is a critical skill in today’s world. By making this course free, we want to break down barriers and help more people see themselves in this space. This isn’t about giving away content, it’s about opening doors for people who might not have considered DFIR as a career or area of interest.

What About Updates?

We’re committed to keeping this course relevant and high-quality. This isn’t a “one and done” resource. We’ll continue to maintain and improve it, adding new content and refining it based on your feedback. Your thoughts and recommendations will play a huge role in shaping this course. Together, we can make this an even better resource for everyone.
