Interesting paper from Hannes Spichiger & Hexordia’s Frank Adelstein on “Preserving meaning of evidence from evolving systems” - how do we test to ensure that we understand the meaning of data at the time it was created? #DFIR www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Preserving meaning of evidence from evolving systems
Preservation is generally considered as the step in the forensic process that stops evidence from decaying. In this paper, we argue that the tradition…

Important must read position paper from Scientific Working Group on Digital Evidence (SWGDE) about the use of timely acquisition to preserve evidence. Mobile data has potential to degrade each day you wait to do an acquisition. #DFIR www.swgde.org/25-f-001/

Agreed. Technology allows smart people to focus on challenges and harder problems. But there are those who will think it is a replacement. That said, those that are less skilled or merely tool operators are a different story.

#DFIR 💭 of the Day: AI doesn’t know what it doesn’t know. This is one of the super powers of Human #DFIR pros - when we don’t know - we test, we validate, we learn. And those findings aren’t always what a “synthesized assumption” would propose as an axiom.

#DFIR 💭 of the day: Training should educate examiners on going beyond tool results. Here’s why: 1) Validate tool findings - particularly “smoking gun”. 2) Determine data meaning of results: how/why 3) Explain analysis results 4) Find unsupported artifacts 5) Adapt to change of supported artifacts

#DFIR 💭 of the day: The examiner provides the MEANING of the data NOT the tool. Tools parse data using algorithms to decode data. The tool does NOT provide the meaning - that is the role of the examiner.
