Armed with Science: Digital Forensics Challenge — Top Guns

Filed under {no comments}

On Armed with Science today at 2:00 pm ET, we will interview Jim Christy, director of Future Exploration for Defense Department Cyber Crime Center (DC3). Christy will discuss why he created the DC3 Digital Forensics Challenge and the future plans for the additional challenges.

DC3 has conducted their challenge for the last four years to identify and recognize the “Top Guns” in the community and solve real-world challenges that digital forensic examiners face every day.

As technology proliferates into every aspect of daily life, the crucial evidence that proves or disproves an allegation may be found in a desktop computer at work or home, a GPS reciever, wrist watch, thumb drive, CD, DVD, cell phone, camera, or game system.
