NATO Military Police Digital Evidence Collection and Handling in support of Investigations Course (previously the NATO MP Cyber Crime Investigation Course - CCIC).
The primary intent of the course is to prepare NATO MP Officers to collect and triage media that is gathered through proper collection of evidence from crime scenes focusing on digital forensics. The examination of the media will provide information that can be used to support the continued criminal investigations. Furthermore, the data collected from these artefacts will be transformed into information that can be ingested into the analytical phase of the intelligence cycle. The curriculum of the training is planned to be composed of both theoretical (lectures) and practical (syndicates) content. The combination of academic knowledge and real life lessons constitutes a solid educational offer for present and future first responders, analysts and other MPs who will be assigned to investigation cells.
