I think that would be a horrible job tbh

Cyber forensics have a huge turnover rate.

Most of the work you will be doing is rarely tracking down hackers, it's finding someone's illegal collection of their computer. Then you get asked over and over about it.

If you think you are hardened by the internet, you are wrong. You will break when you multiply it then you have to talk about it. The talking about it is out loud will make a lot pf people break after the volume.

But what gets the truly hardened ones is having to face the victims... They know what you saw and the see you without your computer to hide your identity. You look at their face and you can see their pain.

You realize it is real.

And reality hits hard.

I used to listen to a podcast titled Small Town Dicks (unfortunate title without context). It's about the forensic procedural work that goes on behind law enforcement. One of the details that stuck with me was the effort that goes into a CP investigation and criminal trial.

When evidence is uncovered, like a hard drive full of CP, the goal is to present the worst of it to the jury. One of the hosts, a retired detective specializing in child abuse cases, had to go through a disk full of the most degenerate shit with victims in the single digit age, rank them, and also run facial recognition to figure out if other perpetrators may have been involved in a different case concerning the same victim.

I never heard of that podcast before. Sounds interesting and very detailed. I will give them a listen. Thank you for the info.

You'd have to ban bathroom breaks.

[–] Acinonyx@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

you mean because post-nut clarity would reduce their work efficiency?
