Computer Hacking Forensic Investigator (CHFI v10) — Question 446

Before you are called to testify as an expert, what must an attorney do first?

Answer options

• A. engage in damage control
• B. prove that the tools you used to conduct your examination are perfect
• C. read your curriculum vitae to the jury
• D. qualify you as an expert witness

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because an attorney must qualify you as an expert witness by demonstrating your expertise and knowledge in the relevant field. The other options are not necessary prerequisites for testifying; for instance, engaging in damage control, proving the perfection of tools, or reading your CV does not directly relate to the qualification process.
