Well, As usual a great article. Though I disagree with certified people and no actual skills. I think most certified people are people who mug up details and vomit on the exam paper.
Yes, there are great analytical challenges in the computer forensics, and I doubt the so called license they achieve will cater to this challenge. Personally, I think companies would blindly hire a licensed forensic expert than a non licensed... It is funny in a way.
I dont have anything against exams, I learn a lot from them, but to have a license (like a dog having a collar is permitted to pee in the park while the owner is watching, and a non-collared dog goes to the pound).
Legal = exam=fees=money=pay hike. Gosh consultants cost much, and then , licensed consultants... Swiss bank
