INTRODUCTION
Today's world's societies are becoming more and more dependent on open
networks such as the Internet - where commercial activities, business
transactions and government services are realized. This has led to the
fast development of new cyber threats and numerous information security
issues which are exploited by cyber criminals. The inability to provide
trusted secure services in contemporary computer network technologies
has a tremendous socio-economic impact on global enterprises as well as
individuals.
Moreover, the frequently occurring international frauds impose the
necessity to conduct the investigation of facts spanning across multiple
international borders. Such examination is often subject to different
jurisdictions and legal systems. A good illustration of the above being
the Internet, which has made it easier to perpetrate traditional crimes.
It has acted as an alternate avenue for the criminals to conduct their
activities, and launch attacks with relative anonymity. The increased
complexity of the communications and the networking infrastructure is
making investigation of the crimes difficult. Traces of illegal digital
activities are often buried in large volumes of data, which are hard to
inspect with the aim of detecting offences and collecting evidence.
Nowadays, the digital crime scene functions like any other network, with
dedicated administrators functioning as the first responders.
This poses new challenges for law enforcement policies and forces the
computer societies to utilize digital forensics to combat the increasing
number of cybercrimes. Forensic professionals must be fully prepared in
order to be able to provide court admissible evidence. To make these
goals achievable, forensic techniques should keep pace with new
technologies.
The aim of this workshop is to bring together the research
accomplishments provided by the researchers from academia and the
industry. The other goal is to show the latest research results in the
field of digital forensics and to present the development of tools and
techniques which assist the investigation process of potentially illegal
cyber activity. We encourage prospective authors to submit related
distinguished research papers on the subject of both: theoretical
approaches and practical case reviews.
The workshop will be accessible to both non-experts interested in
learning about this area and experts interesting in hearing about new
research and approaches.
