Interested in presenting at the DFIR events of the year?

We’re currently accepting submissions for presentations at Magnet Virtual Summit & Magnet User Summit 2026. Submit your abstract and bio today.

Present to attendees worldwide

Magnet Virtual Summit will be taking place between February 23–27, 2026 and will be a special opportunity to share your DFIR knowledge with people everywhere—and of all experience levels. Each year we see a wide variety of topics presented, so submit anything you feel would be of value to the community.

We’ll also be in Nashville from April 20 – 22, 2026 for Magnet User Summit. If you’re attending and want to present to Magnet Forensics users and other DFIR experts, feel free to select that option in your application.

Ideas of what the share

Have you come across a new app, mobile device, or piece of data that required some research? Share your findings and how you got more info!

Maybe it’s a mobile device model seen only in your region, or a new way criminals or corporate intruders are escaping detection. What are some unique challenges you’ve faced and how did you overcome them?

We want to hear about the processes, divisions of labor, and tools you use to get results back to investigators faster, improve the quality of results you provide, or track cases more easily.

Share a story about how you overcame a frustrating process, a tricky device, or some hidden data. Let us know what you did to get through it and what others could do to avoid the situation in the future.
