Computer Hacking Forensic Investigator (CHFI v10) — Question 490

Who is responsible for the following tasks?
✑ Secure the scene and ensure that is maintained in a secure state until the Forensic Team advises
✑ Make notes about the scene that will eventually be handed over to the Forensic Team

Answer options

• A. Non-forensics staff
• B. Lawyers
• C. System administrators
• D. Local managers or other non-forensic staff

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because non-forensics staff are typically responsible for securing the scene and documenting it before the forensic team arrives. Options B and C are incorrect as lawyers and system administrators are not tasked with these specific responsibilities. Option D, while partially correct, is too broad since it includes managers who may not be directly involved in securing the scene.
