Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - In 2006, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) processed more than two petabytes of digital evidence; in 2007, the volume of digital evidence processed will exceed four petabytes. Electronic devices are becoming smaller and more diverse; memory capacities are increasing according to Moore's Law; distributed networks are growing massively in size and scale. As society embraces new technologies and applications with gusto, digital information will become even more pervasive. Digital investigations already involve searching for the proverbial nee dle in the haystack. In five years, possibly sooner, investigators will have to find the one needle in unimaginably large stacks of needles. How will the FBI approach digital investigations of the future How will state and local law enforcement agents cope Digital forensics - the scientific discipline focused on the acquisition, preservation, examination, analysis and presentation of digital evidence - will have to provide solutions. The digital forensics research com munity must initiate serious eff'orts to develop the next generation of algorithms, procedures and tools that will be desperately needed. This book. Advances in Digital Forensics III^ is the third volume in the annual series produced by the IFIP Working Group 11.9 on Dig ital Forensics, an international community of scientists, engineers and practitioners dedicated to advancing the state of the art of research and practice in the emerging discipHne of digital forensics. The book presents original research results and innovative applications in digital forensics.

ADVANCES IN DIGITAL FORENSICS III

Edited by: Philip Craiger and Sujeet Shenoi

Digital forensics deals with the acquisition, preservation, examination, analysis and presentation of electronic evidence. Networked computing, wireless communications and portable electronic devices have expanded the role of digital forensics beyond traditional computer crime investigations. Practically every crime now involves some aspect of digital evidence; digital forensics provides the techniques and tools to articulate this evidence. Digital forensics also has myriad intelligence applications. Furthermore, it has a vital role in information assurance -- investigations of security breaches yield valuable information that can be used to design more secure systems.

Advances in Digital Forensics III describes original research results and innovative applications in the emerging discipline of digital forensics. In addition, it highlights some of the major technical and legal issues related to digital evidence and electronic crime investigations. The areas of coverage include:

- Legal Issues

- Insider Threat Detection

- Rootkit Detection

- Authorship Attribution

- Forensic Techniques

- File System Forensics

- Network Forensics

- Portable Electronic Device Forensics

- Evidence Analysis and Management

- Formal Methods

This book is the third volume in the annual series produced by the International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP) Working Group 11.9 on Digital Forensics, an international community of scientists, engineers and practitioners dedicated to advancing the state of the art of research and practice in digital forensics. The book contains a selection of twenty-four edited papers from the Third Annual IFIP WG 11.9 Conference on Digital Forensics, held at the National Center for Forensic Science, Orlando, Florida, USA in the spring of 2007.

Advances in Digital Forensics III is an important resource for researchers, faculty members and graduate students, as well as for practitioners and individuals engaged in research and development efforts for the law enforcement and intelligence communities.

Philip Craiger is an Assistant Professor of Engineering Technology and Assistant Director for Digital Evidence at the National Center for Forensic Science, University of Central Florida, Orlando, Florida, USA.

Sujeet Shenoi is the F.P. Walter Professor of Computer Science and a principal with the Center for Information Security at the University of Tulsa, Tulsa, Oklahoma, USA.
