What does good practice really look like for digital forensics?
The DPC recently held a series of events on the topic of digital forensics (an initial event on the 26th February and a follow up ‘Watch Party’ event suitable for community members in Australasia and Asia Pacific). As suggested by the title, the focus was to ‘investigate good practice’ through the sharing of knowledge, experiences and case studies.
This event was born as a result of the interesting discussions in our very first DPC Reading Club which looked at an article on the topic of digital forensics by Thorsten Ries, alongside a realization that our existing Technology Watch Report on the topic was in need of revision, and that facilitating a community discussion around the subject might be a good way to kick this off.
