Magnet Virtual Summit: Get Your Presentation Submissions in for the 2023 Call for Papers!

We’re excited to be bringing back Magnet Virtual Summit to DFIR experts and newcomers alike from February 21-March 2, 2023!

Part of what makes MVS such a fantastic virtual event is that a wide spectrum of presenters from many areas of expertise join us to share their research in the latest trends in the fields of digital forensics, incident response, cybersecurity, corporate investigations, and much more.

Interested in taking part and filling one of our available 30 or 50-minute slots?

We’re currently accepting submissions for presentations at this year’s Magnet Virtual Summit and we want to hear from you! Share your knowledge with fellow DFIR practitioners on a global platform on a topic of your choice. Any qualified industry professional is welcome to submit, and all ideas are welcome, including DFIR talks that don’t necessarily tie directly back to our products. Our goal for this event is to be relevant to the industry, with general interest talks that help investigators from all walks.

And we want to make the most of the virtual format by making sure we hear from voices around the world. Local perspectives can be extremely valuable, and we want you to share the unique challenges you may face within your area.

Submit Your Presentation here.
