The DFIR Science YouTube channel was nominated for the 2022 Forensic 4:cast Awards under “DFIR Show of the Year”!
THANK YOU to everyone that thought of us for nomination! This is the first time we have been nominated for a Forensic 4:cast award. I still can’t believe it!

Why do we run the YouTube channel?
Permalink
Because we want to help as many people as possible learn about technology, digital forensics and security. We get a lot of comments and questions like this:
I love helping beginners and experts find resources so they can learn and investigate better. DFIR Science videos try to suppliment other contents and provide additional context. Some people just learn better with audio/visual than text.
Nothing wrong with different learning styles. The DFIR community is good at providing resources in many different formats.
But overall we do it to help that one investigator that might be in a lab by themselves with no budget and left to “figure it out.”
Knowing that we’ve helped someone is why we do it.
