Aerial Data: Introduction to Drone InvestigationsThu, Nov 08, 2018 1:00 PM Eastern With applications from aerial photography to racing to
delivery services, drones are becoming more and more popular in both commercial
and recreational spaces. Criminal use of drones is also increasing, and drone
forensics is quickly becoming an important subfield of digital forensics. This
presentation introduces the history of drones and the ways they are commonly
used, both legitimately and in relation to a crime, and focuses on the ways law
enforcement can gather and analyze evidence involving drones. Topics include
gathering evidence both internal and external to the drone, as well as methods
for manually processing flight logs and displaying data in Google Earth.

The Benefits of Triage: How to Quick Start Your Digital InvestigationTue, Jan 15, 2019 2:00 PM Eastern Learn the art of digital forensic triage- how to conduct
an initial investigation quickly based on the scope of the investigation you are
about to conduct. If 90% of cases can be solved with 10% of the data, let's get
to that point early and make decisions on the need for further deep dive, due
diligence, or peace of mind examination of devices based off facts. Join ADF
Digital Forensic Specialist and Trainer, Rich Frawley, as he leads participants
through a typical investigation to demonstrate the speed, accuracy, and best
practices for using triage in the field or in the lab.

Collecting Evidence from Online Social Media: Building a Cyber-OSINT ToolboxThere is a rapid evolution in the technologies people use to communicate and
share material with each other, in the companies providing the sharing
platforms, and in how people choose to communicate with each. People are
increasingly choosing to communicate using text, images, and videos rather than
traditional electronic voice communications. And, they increasingly choose to
use platforms that make this communication openly available for others to view.
This means that evidence associated with not just metadata, but also content of
communications can often be collected through open sources long after the
communication is completed.
While evidence of criminality and victimization can be recovered through open
source investigative techniques, many of the commercial tools marketed to
criminal investigators and analysts are expensive. This sometimes places them
outside the reach of police departments. And, social media companies are
increasingly blocking API connections for commercial tools that allow the tools
to be used for, “surveillance”. For these reasons, it is increasingly important
for criminal investigators and analysts to build an inexpensive cyber-OSINT
toolbox.
This Webinar will discuss the rapidly evolving ecosystem of online social
media and how people are changing how they choose to communicate. It will then
detail and demonstrate free and inexpensive cyber-OSINT tools that criminal
investigators and analysts can use to start build a cyber-OSINT toolbox.

The Role of Online Social Media in Predicting and Interdicting Spree ViolenceOnline social media is changing how people communicate and interact with
world around them. Increasingly, those contemplating engaging in acts of spree
violence express themselves in online social media. It is important for
investigators and analysts who conduct threat assessments to understand how this
expression plays a key role in predicting and interdicting violence. When there
are acts of spree violence, items of evidentiary value can now often be
recovered from online communities. This evidence can help to shed light on the
thought processes and motivations that led to the tipping point of violence.
This webinar will explore the interaction between social media and spree violence
through a historical examination of case studies ranging in time from 1927 to 2015.
Investigators and analysts, ranging from school resource officers to those who
strategically analyze the tipping points for radicalization, can benefit from this training.

Tor, Onion Routers, Deepnet, and Darknet: A Deep Dive for Criminal Investigators
Many criminal investigators and analysts have heard of VPNs, proxies, and
Tor. But, most would not feel comfortable conducting an investigation in which
one of these tools was deployed. Similarly, both the Deepnet and Darknet are
widely discussed but often not understood. At the same time, criminal
investigators and analysts increasingly are required to conduct investigations
and collect criminal intelligence information in these spaces or when these
tools are being used.
Tor is most commonly used to hide one’s identity. But, it can also be used by
an insider to breach a firewall or Internet filter, and is a gateway to what is
commonly called the Darknet. While TOR is the most common onion router, it is
definitely not the only one. And, while Tor Hidden Service servers are the most
well-known portion of the Darknet, there are other areas accessible through
other tools.
This Webinar is not intended to make attendees experts, but rather to
demystify the topic. It will give investigators and analysts the foundation that
they need to understand these tools and communities—both how they are exploited
by criminal and how they can be used by investigator and analysts.
