The 4th China Computer Forensics
Conference (annual conference 2008), will be
co-organized by China Computer Forensic Research Team,
Grant Thornton, High Technology Crime Investigation
Association Asia Pacific Chapter, and will be held in
Beijing on December 7 - 9,
2008.
China Computer Forensics Conference is a
high-level and new-perspective annual gathering of
international academics and professionals, aiming at
facilitating the development of advanced computer
forensic technology both domestically and
internationally, as well as sharing technical experience
and promoting communications amongst computer forensic
practitioners, law enforcement professionals and experts
in the related fields. The first three conferences have
been very successful and contributed to the development
of computer forensic technologies in China, with
the topics respectively focusing on legislations and
regulations, data recovery, data mining and integration,
evidence preservation, data acquisition on suspect
computer and data analysis.
As a result of the continued
development of new technologies internationally and the
increasing domestics demand, this Conference will
further expand the coverage by providing more
presentation topics so as to further explore new
technologies, meet new demands, and realize better
co-operation with international institutions and law
enforcement agencies. Apart from relevant domestic
academics and professionals, those who will attend the
conference also include practitioners from the fields of
finance, education, business consulting and
investigation, and IT information security, as well as
experts and scholars from many countries and regions.
The Conference has gradually grown to become an
international conference from a domestic professional
meeting.
In
addition, workshops with different topics are added to
this Conference to provide the participants with an
opportunity to learn the skills of using advanced
software and hardware in computer forensic, to acquire
high-level and practical techniques, and to communicate
with international professionals face to face.
The rapid
development of science and technology and the great
increase in the number of computer-related crimes result
in the urgent need to enhance researches, strengthen
regulations and procedures, and facilitate legislations
on computer forensic and its related fields. It is
believed that China Computer Forensics Conference will
have a far-reaching impact on the development of
China's
computer forensic technology. In the past few years,
attendance at conferences and participants at workshops
exceeded 300 each year.
