Hi all Recently the network at my place of employment was compromised the only evidence I could easily recovery was the attackers dhcp lease on our network. This same attacker also got onto my network at home and onto my personal machine (teach me for not keeping my firewall up to date) I took the easy option at home and just reinstalled the operating system. I can't do that at work however........the thing is I'm not sure if he did anything while on my work network. I thought that he may have gotten my logon when he compromised my machine (I use a vpn from home) but the date of the dhcp lease indicates that he was on my employers network first. I rang the cops (computer crime) and they told me that I would have to investigate it myself so I'm posting to get some advice on how I might go about this or if it is even necessary. I'm familiar with forensics on Linux boxes as I did it at uni but we run a Windows based network here.
