There 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 other. 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.

Money laundering is a global, trillion-dollar crime that extends into all areas of commerce. The reality is that money laundering isn’t just a standalone crime, it is also a symptom of additional crimes which generate illicit proceeds. Whether due to lone wolf criminals, or as the result of transnational organized crime, or international corruption, money laundering can be challenging to prove as both a factual matter and as part of a criminal prosecution.

This learning session will outline not only the essential elements of a criminal case of money laundering, but also examine how additional charges can be brought to flush out the elements of that charge. Learners will get a better understanding of the prosecutor’s approach to money laundering (and its related crimes), as well as tools to follow the transactions that can substantiate such a charge. By moving from the academic to applied subject matter, learners will get deep insight into how to both trace illicit assets, as well as how to prepare their findings for criminal cases. The webinar will rely on real-world examples of financial crime, and explain how cases like those can be further built out by investigators, analysts, and compliance officers.

The sale of counterfeit goods may be thought of as a relatively harmless crime, when in reality production, sale, and distribution of counterfeit goods represents money laundering, corruption, fraud, human trafficking, sanctions evasion, and terrorist finance. Much like the sale of illegal narcotics, the production, distribution, and sale of counterfeit goods can yield hundreds of billions of dollars every year. As a result, transnational and localized organized crime groups are involved at every step of the operation. This session will highlight the risks involved with the sale of counterfeit goods, as well as the illicit actors involved, and how these goods make their way into the stream of commerce. This session will explain the nexus between organized criminal activity and the sale of counterfeit goods, while drawing sharp correlations to traditional anti-money laundering controls. Attendees will learn the risk indicators of the sale of counterfeit goods, as well as how to use open source databases to enhance due diligence searches for potential vendors linked to the sale of counterfeit goods. The session will provide recommendations on how to leverage analytics and gap analysis to further detect potentially high-risk customers, products, and transactions.

It is widely acknowledged that Phishing is responsible for >90% of breaches occurring today. Basic phishing primarily exploits human behavior to entice a victim to ‘click the link’ or ‘open the attachment’ thus often handing over to the criminal the golden nugget – valid access credentials. While we are all taught not to click or open the attachment, the scheme is still highly successful and profitable. In fact, recent reporting indicates that regardless of the amount of training provided, organizations will likely see at least 4% of their workforce click on a link thus resulting in some sort of compromise.

During this webinar, a panel of NCFTA experts will explain how phishing campaigns are conducted; from developing a “phish kit”, to weaponizing a botnet for delivery, using any stolen credentials for financial gain, then laundering millions of dollars all over the world to fund their lavish lifestyles at your expense, etc.

Online 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.

“Through the looking glass” is a metaphorical expression meaning: on the strange side, in the twilight zone, or in a strange, parallel world. While the internet can be considered a strange, parallel world, it can also be an informative, interesting, yet scary place when conducting different types of investigations. There are various technologies and methods that you can use to protect your identity and information while conducting internet-based investigations. This session will illustrate these technologies and methods to keep you safe when investigating online.
 
You Will Learn How To:
 
• Identify the methods criminals use to find your data.
• Compare various technologies and software tools to protect your identity while  investigating online.
• Examine various methods to employ to hide your own tracks.

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.
