Too often, devices sit for weeks while the balance between thorough, defensible work and timely insight gets lost. When I was part of the West Virginia State Police and ICAC Task Force, I had to rethink how to strike that balance.
In today’s investigations, one thing is certain, data is everywhere. Every seized phone, laptop, or cloud account holds a potential goldmine of information. While digital forensics teams work tirelessly to extract and analyse that data for court, intelligence units are often working just a few doors away, building operational pictures and identifying threats. The problem? … Continued
