Digital Forensics
Abstract Proposal: Early decisions shape child‑exploitation cases long before devices reach the lab. This session shows how modern forensic tools help identify offenders, locate victims, build probable cause, and guide real‑time actions. It covers rapid evidence ID, field triage, targeted collection, known‑file detection, and on‑scene support, plus the realities of consent searches, knock‑and‑talks, warrants, and managing multiple devices under pressure.
