NIST Cloud Computing Forensic Science Workshop on March 24, 2014
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), a federal technology agency, will host a free Cloud Computing Forensic Science Workshop on Monday, March 24, at its campus in Gaithersburg, Maryland. Advance registration is required. The event is free and open to the public.
More than 20 leaders in digital forensics from government, industry, and academia will share their insights into effective and appropriate ways to identify, recover, examine, analyze, and report on digital evidence found in the cloud and in devices connected to the cloud. Speakers will address challenges and lessons learned, as well as the path forward for cloud computing forensics. The workshop will explore current technologies and methods, desired technical capabilities, case studies, and practical approaches for handling cloud computing forensics.
A facilitated discussion will look at the future of cloud forensics, barriers to implementing the future, and what the road map looks like to achieve the future.
The event is intended for computing professionals, researchers, and implementers of cloud computing and digital forensic technologies.
