Person of interest

“Technology changes so quickly, and there are always new ways of hiding information,” Dennis says. He’s learning them all, from tracing evidence on a cell phone to documenting how easily white-collar criminals can alter e-mails. When he tackles an assignment, he asks himself, “If I were going to hide something, where would I put it?”

Dennis is developing the habits of mind he’ll need when he gets his dream job with the FBI or CIA. “You need to be very detailed, focused, self-motivated and patient—from getting search warrants and subpoenas to recovering data. It’s becoming clearer how to put the bad guys away. Justice will be served.”
