Forensic computer analysts investigate crimes against computers, such as hacking, as well as crimes involving computers. They might search a suspect’s computer hard drive for incriminating files, pictures or other documents. They might also track the Internet activity of a suspect or victim to determine what sites he visited and whom he communicated with. In addition, they can often reveal information that suspects have attempted to hide, such as determining where an email or other electronic communication originated from even if the sender concealed his computer’s IP address to mask his location.
