Technical Challenges in Cyber Forensics
- 1. Technical Challenges in Cyber Forensics Glasgow Caledonian University, Digital Forensics Student Conference
- 2. Agenda The technical challenges The research areas
- 3. Before we begin… Who is NCC? • 100 million GBP revenue FTSE company • Cyber Security Assurance Practice • 180 UK technical assurance consultants • applied research (.gov.uk / .co.uk) • technical security assessments • cyber forensics incident response • 50 UK risk / audit consultants • 90 US technical assurance consultants • Escrow & Software Assurance = sister BUs
- 4. Before we begin… Hopefully not a lesson in sucking eggs
- 5. Things I won’t cover… because Keith did/will •Accreditation •Big data •Cyber security* •Cloud computing •Mobile*
- 6. Why forensics? •What happened •How it happened •Where it happened •Who did it / who didn’t do it •Why it happened*
- 7. Forensic chain of custody requirements •Intention: Court •high •Intention: Not court •low Focus for this talk: not court
- 8. What we see today •Offensive material •Basic data theft •remote internet •internal employee •Hacktivisim •Financial related •Complex nation state threat actors •high value IP theft
- 9. Tech challenge #1: non-tech usability •Triage •Acquisition •Aggregation •Processing •Analysis •Answers
- 10. Tech challenge #2: security •TPM •Crypto •software •hardware •Device protection •passphrase •fingerprint •anti-tamper
- 11. Tech challenge #3: IoT acquisition •CCTV, Watches, TVs, Fridges etc.. •Vehicles •Multi Functional Devices •BMS / EMS .. etc.. … storage removal … storage processing … ability to make sense
- 12. Tech challenge #4: rapid tech evolution •Devices •Operating systems •Apps •Methods of communication •Methods of storage •Internet services
