The image on the cover of Internet Forensics is of a man holding a listening device. Although that particular listening device is decidedly on the large side, hearing aids that are manufactured today are small enough to fit around, or even inside, the ear. The technology for hearing aids has advanced greatly as well. A common complaint among hearing aid users is that the device amplifies all sounds, making it difficult to deal with being in crowds, for example. Although background noise issues still exist, now digital hearing aids are being produced that can help to significantly minimize the problem.

Mary Brady was the production editor and proofreader for Internet Forensics. Nancy Reinhardt was the copyeditor. Mary Anne Weeks Mayo and Claire Cloutier provided quality control. Marlowe Shaeffer provided production assistance. Johnna VanHoose Dinse wrote the index.
