CyberSpeak is BACK and we hope to publish a monthly podcast (more if I'm lucky).

This episode on CyberSpeak we briefly discuss possible implications to U.S. forensicators with the release of the Ashley Madison database (hopefully not). We also have a great interview with Yogesh Khatri, an assistant professor at Champlain College and a security researcher about the SRUM or System Resourse Usage Monitor forensic artifact. Website of the week: Has your email been Pwned? Check it out here -> Have I Been Pwned

This episode of CyberSpeak we conduct recon on Mark Spencer and his new Windows registry analysis tool Registry Recon.  Mark is the President of Arsenal Consulting.  This new registry tool could change the way we analyze the Windows registry.  No longer will you be satisfied just looking st the current/active registry.   

Happy 2013!  I'm back and going to try to start getting some more shows out for you. This show we talk to James Wiebe, Director of Foensic Business Devleopment at WiebeTech about solid state hard drives, his research and the forensic implications. Email me at cyberspeak at gmail dot com if you have some suggestions for future show topics you want to hear.

This episode we discuss running AV and malware detection software on your forensic workstation and have an interview with Corey Harrell and discuss analyzing Volume Shadow Copies.  

This special episode of CyberSpeak is an interview with Ken Privette with NUIX about their new tool release this morning called Proof Finder.  They are releasing 1,000 copies for $100 each of this new tool. Go get a copy before they are all gone at www.prooffinder.com. This special limited edition tool is limited to 10G of data. What does 10G of data look like, Nuix says it is an average of 241,165 Emails or 20333 Documents or 7069 Spreadsheets or 25514 Images. It can ingest all major forensic images (E01, DD, etc)

Listen to the show for more details.  100% of all sales go to charity "Room to Read", an organization that works in collaboration with communities and local governments in developing countries to develop literacy skills and a habit of reading among primary school children, and support girls to complete secondary school with the life skills they’ll need to succeed in school and beyond.

ALERT-Download and install on the computer you want it registered to.  Initial installation will lock it to that computer.

This week on CyberSpeak I interview Andrew Case, one of the developers of Registry Decoder, a National Institute of Justice sponsored application. Find it at www.registrydecoder.com

This week on CyberSpeak, a quick thanks to everyone for pitching in on the ForensicsWiki - I saw over 100 new entries on everything from Sticky notes, mounting images, jump lists to people's BIOS.  Jim Emailed asking who the mystery voice was in out CyberSpeak Sweepers - Karl over from CyberCon Security Solutions said wrote in to say he just ran across this site today and thought it might be a great resource for the listeners.  It is not focused on Cyber Security but the concepts are the similar to help prepare for trial.  LAW 101: LEGAL GUIDE FOR THE FORENSIC EXPERT. Shout out to Charles.  Finally, Loren Wrote in and said during the interview, Keith Jones mentioned preparing for court by asking others for their opinions. Are there any ramifications of bringing others into the case like that? 

In the News, Google, The Company with the motto - DO NO EVIL - agreed to forfeit $500 million to the U.S. Government for allowing -- and assisting in many case -- online Canadian pharmacies to place AdWords ads targeting customers in the United States resulting in the unlawful importation of controlled and non-controlled prescription drugs into the United States.  

This weeks interview is with Chris Pogue, Mr. Sniper Forensics!

Listener Email -

Richardo from Navada Concerned about those performing collateral duty of doing digital forensic examinations.  Frustrated to read article after article in digital forensic publications that cover the deconstruction of a complicated piece of malware. he would rather have articles that rehashed digital forensic basics and covered free automated/low cost tools that help me do my job efficiently and reliably.
