Proving what’s real in a synthetic world

I was at a conference a couple of weeks ago, and one thing became impossible to ignore. Five or six presentations, different speakers, different research, all orbiting the same core problem: deepfakes, synthetic media, and altered images.

Why High-Tech needs to understand Low-Tech

Fraud breaks one in three businesses. A business may be the perfect target, a sitting duck for the financial attacks by both con artists and dishonest employees, either of which may completely take down a business.

Professional speaker and fraud expert Chuck Whitlock helps businesses learn how to spot both internal and external threats as well as prevent the financial loss which accompanies them.

Chuck’s presentations incorporate videos, real-life investigations, interviews with perpetrators, humor, and energy-making for a valuable learning experience for anyone in business and the business of protecting businesses.

Armed with his library of videos and in-depth knowledge of white-collar crime, Chuck educates audiences about fraud by raising awareness of current scams and how scams work.

Every business-and certainly every loss-prevention specialist-will benefit from Chuck’s efforts and expertise.

Unmasking hidden threats: Rethinking standard DFIR approaches

By

In today’s dynamic cybersecurity landscape, traditional digital forensics and incident response (DFIR) methods often fall short in fully uncovering the scope of cyber threats. This is due not only to the complexity of modern attacks but also to the environments under investigation. This presentation examines the limitations of conventional DFIR, sharing real-world cases where standard techniques failed to reveal the full extent of malicious activity, and detailing the approaches used to expose the true risks. Adversaries now employ increasingly advanced tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs), requiring more adaptable investigative strategies. We’re advocating for a shift toward flexible DFIR practices that go beyond traditional constraints, enabling practitioners to identify hidden threats and challenge ingrained assumptions within organizations. Our goal is to equip security professionals with confidence in challenging assumptions and better meet the challenges of modern cyber threats.

Rapprochement: Fuel for accelerating digital forensics investigations

By

Most professionals agree that being collaborative with others—even “likable”— is the master key to getting things done, more so than technical prowess, education, or past experience. Digital forensics examiners must work with or address challenging clients (often lawyers), law enforcement, judicial officers and staff, other experts, and jurors.

In this session, we will discuss techniques for: introductions; establishing rapport; giving, earning, and maintaining respect; managing perceptions; establishing and maintaining boundaries; and communicating effectively. Mastery of these techniques will not only result in immediate effects with new encounters, but yield long term, compounding benefits over time.

Your presenter is a full-time digital forensics examiner, medical device security expert, and attorney, who works all sides of communications challenges.
