Presented by Dell Inc.

In recent years,  there has been an exponential rise in the volume, velocity, variety, and sophistication of digital activity by criminals and terrorist groups worldwide.  Most crimes today have a digital component and the growth has been exacerbated by dramatic advances in the diversity and capacity of readily-available consumer electronic devices. From PCs to laptops, mobile phones to thumb drives and even game consoles, security and law enforcement officials are pushed to the limit to clone, ingest (or image), index, and analyze growing amounts of suspect data while preserving the digital chain of custody and protecting citizens.  Given the demand for help to support these challenging, inherently governmental tasks, Dell has developed an  approach to Digital Forensics that maximizes technology and preserves the required information to support criminal investigation.  Join this session and learn more about how to use a practical, serial process that applies the principles of Cloud Computing to enable simultaneous parallel processing of digital evidence.
