FLETC Conference Offers Support and Insight in the Fight Against Cybercrime

According to a study by PEW Research Center, in 2006, 73% of Americans owned a cell phone. That statistic excludes the use of smart phones at the time.  Furthermore, 72% owned a desktop or laptop computer and 20% owned an MP3 player. Overall, 73% of Americans used the internet.

As of 2014, 90% of Americans owned cellphones, 64% had a smart phone, 32% owned an eBook reader, and 42% owned a tablet computer. As of 2014, 87% of Americans use the internet on a regular basis.

As you can see, Americans have dramatically increased their usage of the internet via smartphones, tablets, and other electronics since 2006. The modern world is becoming exponentially interconnected. While this technological growth is impressive, it has also led to more opportunities for individuals to commit or become a victim of cybercrime.
To combat this negative trend, the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center (FLETC) hosted a Cybercrime Conference in Glynco, Georgia earlier this year. The goal of the event was to advance the knowledge of forensic tools and techniques used to understand and prevent cybercrime. As stated by FLETC on Twitter, “The purpose of the cybercrime conference is to foster education and awareness of the threats that [are] impacting LE [Law Enforcement] officers.”

Providing more training events for federal agency members and raising awareness of cybercrime threats as technology evolves is important for cybercrime prevention. The more accessible the internet becomes to users, the faster law enforcement must adapt.
FLETC customized unique training tracks for the different professionals who attended the conference. The training curriculum for First Responders centered on the impact of smart phones and how to efficiently incorporate these devices into investigations. The Legal track focused on the fine line between invasion of privacy and investigative jurisdiction. Multiple topics were highlighted as well such as an introduction to JTAG for mobile forensics and a demonstration of Blacklight Software. JTAG uses advanced data acquisition to help users bypass security features like lock screens to access necessary information and can even retrieve data off broken devices. Blacklight analyzes computer volumes and mobile devices and includes analysis of memory images with the goal of providing comprehensive and easily searchable data.

Tri-Tech Forensics is glad to have had the opportunity to attend the FLETC Cybercrime Conference this year and to be included in the cybercrime awareness and prevention conversation. The opportunity to network with individuals who share the same drive to protect the public is always a privilege.

Tri-Tech Forensics Discovery is excited to announce our latest product, the LIMA Forensic Case Management Product Suite. The end-to-end case management system optimizes efficiency and auditability for digital forensics casework. TTF is excited to be an authorized re-seller of the comprehensive software solution for North, Central and South America. The system has three different levels of customization: the Lite, the Laboratory, and the Enterprise to help satisfy the needs for all clients.
 
Lima Lite is a low-cost option that was created for a single user. However, the software is easy to upgrade to multiple users, allowing for growth in your organization. It allows smaller agencies to provide continuity of evidence and full disclosure within a single management system.
 
Lima Laboratory allows for a digital forensics agency to remain organized from initial case inquiry to case completion. Features include mobile on-screen apps and a LIMA Management Console that can be integrated with other software solutions to enhance ease-of-use and adaptability. This edition offers software access from multiple locations and allows for cross-site resource management.
 
Lima Enterprise is the optimal solution for managing casework, investigations, and laboratory management for a variety of organization sizes. With features like evidence management, examination logging, time tracking, reporting on both cases and laboratory work, and more, this is a premium service for multi-faceted agencies.
 
Our Director of Digital Forensic Services, Chuck Gilpin, recently returned from the UK from a LIMA Administration and Client Use training sponsored by IntaForensics.  “LIMA is a must-have for any law enforcement agency or commercial digital forensics lab,” says Gilpin, who is now an Accredited LIMA Installer and Accredited LIMA Trainer for all United States based clients who have purchased the software. “The digital chain of custody software is an all-inclusive product.”
 
While maintaining the ease of use and adaptability in all versions of LIMA, which is a focal point of the software’s design, the user is able to manage the entire case process from collection to final dispatch with the goal of saving time as well as administrative costs regardless of the package selected.
