The ongoing efforts to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 have resulted in social distancing of the general population while law enforcement professionals are still on the job. Key to rule of law is proper investigation of crime and collection of relevant evidence to support prosecution. This new law enforcement operational reality, safeguards for minimizing human interaction while conducting patrol and investigative operations, and processing of crime scenes and collection of evidence are complicated by possible contamination of subjects, environments, and evidence. This presents a range of both physical and legal considerations in balancing human safety in the face of a highly contagious biohazard with sustained operational efficacy. This webinar will examine these topics and provide information as to addressing these challenges.

The ongoing efforts to respond to the array of COVID 19 Internet threats have resulted in aggressive and focused work by the cybersecurity community in concert with Law Enforcement. Collaboration and human information sharing is many times less than adequate in keeping pace with this cyber threat landscape.  Cyber Threat Intelligence requires automation, application of large data, and machine speed information sharing.  While much of this intends to result in mitigation and cybersecurity solutions, a look under the hood immediately depicts many opportunities to support and enhance a range of cybercrime as well as cyber enabled crime investigations. This webinar will examine these topics and provide information as to benefit from these Cyber Intelligence Efforts to support your investigations.

Criminal investigators and analysts need to understand how it is possible for people to conceal and obfuscate their identity and location on the Internet.  Two primary methods are through the use of proxies and virtual private networks (VPNs).  This ability to hide one’s identity and location on the Internet can be both a challenge and an opportunity.  Various methods of concealing identity and location, while engaged in activates on the Internet, provides an opportunity for investigators to engage in covert online research while also providing a means for criminals to engage in surreptitious communication in furtherance of nefarious activities.  As technologies, such as digital device fingerprinting, emerge as ways to attribute identity this becomes a topic about which every investigator and analyst must become familiar.

This Webinar will include an overview of how the Web was designed and functions.  A basic overview of IP fingerprinting, browser/software fingerprinting, and device fingerprinting will set the stage for a deeper dive into proxies and VPNs—two of the most common methods used both by criminals and criminal investigators to conceal their identities and locations while engaging in online social networking and online communication.

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.

This webinar is intended to inform law enforcement and criminal justice professionals about some scams and acts of fraud that are likely to be perpetrated during a pandemic.
In response to the rapid spread of the coronavirus, NW3C and the Regional Information Sharing Systems (RISS) recognizes the need for law enforcement training related to scams and fraud that are being used to exploit a pandemic.

The highly contagious COVID-19 has impacted our way of life as we know it. As international, federal, state, county, local, private organizations, and individuals work together in response to the coronavirus, there are scammers and fraudsters attempting to capitalize given the opportunity. These scammers and fraudsters are preying on the fear of the public and the unknown factors of the coronavirus while using tactics such as phishing attacks, malware, sale of counterfeit goods, investment fraud, and more.

This webinar will bring current information on identifying and responding to scams and frauds amidst a pandemic. Information from the U.S. Center for Disease Control (CDC) and World Health Organization (WHO) will be referenced throughout this webinar.

NW3C and the RISS Centers strive to provide law enforcement with information that can be used to identify, report, investigate, and prosecute high-tech and economic crimes. NW3C and RISS also recognize that the ability of law enforcement to share accurate information and resources with the public is critical for the prevention of scams and fraud. Therefore, in this webinar, relevant resources and websites will be shared to present accurate information that will help identify, respond, and prevent the scams and fraud that have surfaced during this pandemic.

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.

If anything about mobile forensics could be considered buzzworthy in the past year, it would be the release of the Checkm8 Boot ROM exploit created by axi0mX in October. Allowing critical access to 11 generations of iPhones and iDevices, checkm8 is a new opportunity to access data previously locked behind a secure wall. But beyond the hype, what data can you actually access using this newfound exploit, and what do you do once you’ve extracted data using Checkm8?

In this webinar, we will discuss the benefits, challenges and the utility of Checkm8 and Checkra1n to mobile forensic examiners and investigators. We will also explore how examiners can use Checkra1n to gain access to devices and what that access means in practical terms for your investigations.

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.
