This section of my portfolio comprises selected practicals, papers &
presentations that I have written in the course of my graduate 
education and personal projects.


	Note:	Most of these zip files have been created to 
		retain relative paths or folder hierarchy.  Since 
		many folders contain files by the same name (like 
		a readme.txt file), it is recommended that if you unzip 
		a file with more than one program, that you retain the 
		folder hierarchy.
		
		For Example: 
		If you are using Norton Utilities File Manager, click 
		the "Use Stored Folders" option.  If you are using the 
		WinZip Utility, click the "Use Folder Names" option.

You have 3 different download options:

1) Download one .zip file containing my Graduate Portfolio: 
   bmc_grad_portfolio.zip

2) Download .zip files containing the 4 sections of this portfolio:
	
		Evidence_Recovery_Practicals.zip
			- Evidence Reports and Processing notes from 
			  "case" practicals from Computer Forensics I

		Networking_Practicals.zip	
			- Evidence Reports and Processing notes from 
			  "case" practicals from Computer Forensics II
			  
		Papers_Presentations.zip
			- Technical & Forensic papers & presentations
			  from Computer Forensics Graduate Certificate
			  Program
			  
		Tools_Forensic.zip
			- Forensic tools and utilities used in 
			  course practicals and investigations

 
	If you download these files, unzip them to a directory that 
	you have created for this purpose.

	When you unzip these files they will create 
	the following directories respectively:

		Evidence_Recovery_Practicals/
				CGS5131_Practical_01/
				CGS5131_Practical_02/
				CGS5131_Practical_03/
				CGS5131_Practical_04/
						
		Networking_Practicals/
				CGS5132_Practical_01/
				CGS5132_Practical_02/
				CGS5132_Practical_03/
								
		Papers_Presentations/
		
		Forensic_Tools/
				DOS7_BootDisk/ 
				Prune_SeeJunk/
				PutFlop_GetFlop/	
				
* See the Scenario 3 Description for full descriptions of the 
  contents of each directory.
