The International Conference on Digital Forensics and Cyber Crime (ICDF2C) brings together leading researchers, practitioners, and educators from around the world to advance the state of the art in digital forensic and cyber crime investigation. Keeping up with our international and collaborative nature at ICDF2C, we are proud to announce that ICDF2C 2015 will run jointly with the Korean Digital Forensic Society’s Annual Conference (KDFS 2015).

The 7th International Conference on Digital Forensics & Cyber Crim, ICDF2C 2015 will be held October 6 – 8, 2015 in Seoul, South Korea. We invite contributions for completed research papers, research-in-progress papers, industrial talks, panel and tutorial proposals, and round table discussions. Research papers are evaluated through a double-blind, peer-reviewing process and accepted research papers will be published in printed proceedings by Springer-Verlang.

Further, we are partnering with Elsevier’s “Digital Investigation: The International Journal of Digital Forensics & Incident Response” to invite expanded versions of specially selected papers for inclusion in their SCI-indexed publication.

SPECIAL THEMES

This year, we have two themes that we intend to embrace. Authors are encouraged to submit papers relating to these themes:

* Usage, implications and investigation of the “Dark Web”

* Case studies and investigation techniques relating to cryptocurrencies

SCOPE

The Internet has made it easier to perpetrate crimes by providing criminals an avenue for launching attacks with relative anonymity. The increased complexity of global communication and networking infrastructure and devices makes investigation of cybercrimes difficult.

Clues of illegal activities are often buried in large volumes of data that need to be sifted through in order to detect crimes and collect evidence. The field of digital forensics and cybercrime investigation has become very important for law enforcement, national security, and information assurance. Digital forensics and cybercrime investigations are multidisciplinary areas that encompasses law, computer science, finance, telecommunications, data analytics, policing and more. ICDF2C brings together practitioners and researchers from diverse fields providing opportunities for business and intellectual engagement among attendees.

The following topics highlight the conference’s theme:

Anti Forensics and Anti-Anti Forensics

Big Data and Digital Forensics

Business Applications of Digital Forensics
