In the cybersecurity world, the digital forensics dept acts as the Crime Scene Investigation team for a business that has fallen foul of a cyber-criminal. DFI techniques are used to investigate and rectify the problems caused by the hack, and/or bring the perpetrator to justice. Similarly to traditional forensics, cyber incident response teams can find data to use as evidence in the investigation.

In this episode, we talk to David Barr – Principle CIRT Consultant at Secure Impact – about the day-to-day of digital forensics, how the scene is evolving, and what to expect from his talk at UnLocked: London Olympia.
