Anchors in Relative Time
I’m looking forward to sharing our passion for digital forensics with the OverDrive attendees and connecting with Spanish law enforcement currently using our digital forensics tools.”
BOSTON (PRWEB) February 14, 2018
Mark Spencer, President of Arsenal Consulting (ArsenalExperts.com) has been selected to open the OverDrive hacking conference in Spain with the most recent version of his award-winning presentation “High Stakes Evidence Tampering and the Failure of Digital Forensics” on April 18. The OverDrive conference is focused on enhancing the camaraderie of the worldwide hacker community by connecting people involved in many different aspects of computer security.
What is Arsenal’s Mark Spencer saying about OverDrive?
“I am honored that the OverDrive team asked me to open the conference. OverDrive was born from the efforts of students and professors at the technical school of Girona who are truly passionate about computer security. I’m looking forward to sharing our passion for digital forensics with the OverDrive attendees and connecting with Spanish law enforcement currently using our digital forensics tools.”
Why attend this presentation?
Discussions about electronic evidence tampering are often academic, which can leave participants skeptical about the practicality of various tools and techniques. Attendees of this presentation will be introduced to the tools and techniques used quite successfully by attackers in a high-profile case — from delivering documents that resulted in the imprisonment of journalists to evading detection by digital forensics experts. Mark Spencer will demonstrate Arsenal’s “Anchors in Relative Time” analysis technique which ultimately revealed that the computers in question were attacked both locally and remotely, including the use of a RAT (Remote Access Trojan) never seen before in the wild.
What are the journalists saying about Arsenal’s work?
"Arsenal’s pursuit in the technical side of our case, and your effort to show the discrepancies in the evidence, was at the heart of what shed light on how unjustly we were charged. Your investigation was vital in demonstrating to the legal community the significance of verifying the authenticity of any and all technical pieces of evidence in any legal process.” Müyesser Yıldız — Investigative Journalist, Odatv
