IOWA COMPUTER FORENSICS CERTIFICATION

Iowa Computer Forensics Certification - IA Rules and Regulations
When it comes to standard operating procedure in computer forensics, every state has its own laws and procedures. Currently, Iowa is operating with regards to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure Amendments. Iowa’s adoption of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure amendments is pending a decision by the Supreme Court of Iowa, after the recent completion of public comments regarding the proposed rules changes*.

Iowa is among the majority of the states which require any individual practicing data recovery with the intent of using found information in a court of law be a licensed Private Investigator in that state. This is referred to as electronic discover or e discovery. While this is not an issue for the Law Enforcement Agencies working across the country it could prove to be an obstacle for those working in the private sector as computer forensic “specialists”
