Harness local Large Language Models for DFIR investigations without exposing sensitive data to third-party services. Learn to deploy self-hosted AI, build custom forensic agents, and analyze logs and artifacts using natural language queries.
Harness local Large Language Models for DFIR investigations without compromising sensitive forensic data. This one-day hands-on course teaches deployment of self-hosted AI while maintaining complete data control.
Organizations increasingly explore AI for investigative workflows but cannot risk exposing forensic data to third-party services. FOR563 bridges that gap by operationalizing LLMs in fully self-hosted environments.
Master four critical capabilities through technical labs:
Configure and deploy local LLMs via GUI and programmatic methods
Build custom AI agents for forensic and incident response use cases
Analyze structured data - logs, text messages, databases - using natural language
Fine-tune LLMs for specialized DFIR tasks using custom datasets
Examine practical challenges of using LLMs in DFIR: context limitations, model fine-tuning, and output verification. Apply concepts to logs, forensic artifacts, databases, and files containing proprietary or undocumented formats.
While emphasizing private implementations, all techniques extend to API-based or cloud-hosted LLMs when appropriate. Accelerate investigations, automate repetitive analysis, and tailor AI tools to specific forensic needs - all without external data exposure.
6 CPE credits across 1 intensive day.
Highlights
Deploy private AI for investigations: Configure local LLMs, build custom DFIR agents, query forensic data with natural language, and fine-tune models for specialized tasks.
4 hands-on labs: GPU-enabled environment setup, local model deployment, structured data analysis, and custom agent development for forensic workflows.
Built for DFIR professionals who need AI capabilities without exposing sensitive case data to external services. 1 day, 6 CPEs.

This listing offers one pricing dimension: a single-user license for the FOR563 course on applied AI for digital forensics and incident response. You buy per user, so pricing scales by the number of individual licenses you need. There are no tiers, instance sizes, or usage add-ons to choose from. Each license covers one person's access to the course, which delivers instructor-led and self-paced training with hands-on labs. To purchase for a group, you add more single-user units.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What does one single-user license include for this course?
Each license covers one person's access to the FOR563 course. It spans one day of instructor-led training, roughly six hours of self-paced content, and four hands-on labs. The license applies to one named individual and cannot be shared across multiple people.
How does cost change if I need to train more than one person?
Cost scales linearly with the number of people. You add one single-user unit per additional person, since each license covers one individual. There are no volume tiers or usage add-ons built into this dimension. Every person you enroll needs a separate unit.
Can I choose how to attend the course under this license?
The course is offered in instructor-led and self-paced formats. Instructor-led sessions run live, online or in person. Self-paced study lets you work through recorded content and labs on your own schedule. The single-user license covers one person's access regardless of format.

AI Spark is a governed entry point for AI: a bounded operational use case connected through TomorrowX Data Mediation™, deployed into your AWS account, without replacing existing systems. Many AI ideas stall between demonstration and production because live workflows introduce real data, identity, approvals and risk. AI Spark connects the model to a meaningful but contained workflow through a governed mediation boundary, so data access, output handling and action are controlled and evidenced from the start. Organisations retain full control of infrastructure, security and network boundaries, including in regulated, secure and air gapped environments. Designed for partner-led delivery, AI Spark produces an operational proof with visible controls and evidence for business, risk and technical stakeholders, and a reusable capability for scaling AI adoption.
