The power of the field of digital forensics was brought into light following the recent chaos on January 6, 2021, in Washington, D.C. While the obvious evidence of questionable (and illegal) actions by 100s or 1000s of people was on full display on national and international media, less obvious “digital footprints” were being left for investigators to uncover.  How are they discovered?  Where do you look to find them?  What tools are used?  What cloaks do criminals use to hide their activities?  

With decades of experience tracking down the activities of accused criminals, Ugo Lopez is a highly regarded sleuth. In this Meet the Gurus event, Ugo helps you to understand:  

  • What are digital footprints 
  • Where do you look for these signs of alleged wrongdoing 
  • What are (some of them) legal and regulatory constraints investigators need to consider 
  • What tools are used to research, quantify, clarify and surface digital crime 
  • What tools do alleged criminals use to hide their activities
