The First FBI Regional Computer Forensic Laboratory was established in which year?

• A. 1998
• B. 1993
• C. 2000
• D. 2005

Answer: (C)

The question checks your knowledge of when the FBI first established its Regional Computer Forensic Laboratory (RCFL) program. The RCFL network was created to provide centralized, standardized digital forensics capabilities to support investigations across federal, state, and local agencies. The first RCFL began operations in 2000, marking the launch of this program and the start of formal, regional digital forensics labs. The other years are outside the actual founding moment: they either precede the program’s inception or come after its initial establishment. So, the correct year is 2000.
