[Tccc] [CFP] 2nd Annual ACM Northeast Digital Forensics Exchange, due 1 June 2010

We apologize if you receive multiple copies of this CFP.

NeFX 2010 - 2nd Annual ACM Northeast Digital Forensics Exchange,
Washington, DC, USA, September 13-14, 2010.
(Submissions due 1 June 2010)

Practitioners in digital forensics face many challenges and problems, be
they from law enforcement, the intelligence or government community, or
private practice. Criminal activity, system intrusions, and computer
misuse are endemic in today's networked world. Today's state-of-art
digital forensic technology on correlating large amount of often
distributed digital evidence, crime scene reconstruction, and eventually
mapping them to physical criminal scenario can only be best described as
ad hoc and fragmented. We have also seen that most criminal
investigations have involved crime scenes that co-exist in both
cyberspace and physical worlds. There is an urgent need to move the
capabilities and foundation of digital forensics from an ad hoc basis to
one of science.

Digital forensics is an inherently complex cross-disciplinary field that
deals with complicated and potentially inconsistent issues/goals cutting
across technical, legal, and law enforcement domains. The ACM Northeast
Digital Forensics Exchange (NeFX), sponsored in part by the National
Science Foundation and the Army Research Office, is designed to foster
collaboration on digital forensics and information assurance between
federal and state law enforcement, academia, and industry. Our goal is
to bring together leading practitioners and academics in order to yield
partnerships that advance research on digital forensic science through
mutual sharing of the problems of practice and research. All topic areas
related to digital forensics are of interest and in scope, which
include, but are not limited to:
- Imaging/Monitoring
- Network Forensics
- Small-scale and Mobile Device Forensics
- Data Processing and Analytics
- Software Forensics and Malware Analysis
- File Carving and File System Analysis
- Anti-forensics Techniques
- Digital Forensics (from signal processing perspective)
- Evidence Modeling and Principles
- Live and Memory Analysis
- Multimedia Forensics
- Database, Web, and Cloud Computing System Forensics
- Digital Evidence Storage and Preservation
- Forensic tool Validation: Methodologies and Principles
- Cyber-crime Strategy Analysis & Modeling
- Advanced search, analysis, and presentation of digital evidence
- Courtroom expert witness and case presentation
- Case studies
- Legal and Sociological Issues
- Intelligence Issues in Forensics
