[sleuthkit-users] Open Source Digital Forensics Conference - Call For Presentations

[Brian C. <ca...@sl...>]

The 5th Annual Open Source Digital Forensics Conference (OSDFCon) will be held on November 5, 2014 in Herndon, VA.  All users and developers are invited to submit a presentation or workshop topic by June 1st.  This is a unique opportunity to present your work and experiences to over 400 people.

The conference will be attended by both digital forensic investigators and developers.  This event is a great opportunity to make investigators aware of your tools, get feedback from users, meet fellow developers and users, and help direct the future of open source digital forensics software.

To receive updates about the conference, sign up for e-mail updates (http://www.osdfcon.org) or watch #osdfcon on twitter.

We are looking for 35-minute talks on a variety of topics about using open source tools, including:

 * Open, plug-in analysis framework designs and experiences
 * Automated analysis
 * Hard drive analysis and triage

 * Mobile device forensics
 * Analyzing application-level artifacts
 * Cyber incident response

We also have openings for half-day workshops on the day before the conference (November 4, 2014).  The workshops should teach people how to use or develop open source tools by providing hands-on guidance.
