Building a profile of a subject of interest using digital intelligence opportunities - 2 October 2024

• Agenda live and included below.

• An exclusive workshop that will consider the investigative opportunities that can be gleaned from a variety of digital evidence sources about a subject of interest in a major crime investigation.

• It will provide a contemporary and operational snapshot of the investigative opportunities that can be obtained from digital data and explain how they can be used to build up a profile of the subject of interest and their activities, location, associations and any other information that could prove crucial to the investigation.

• It is aimed at investigators, analysts and police staff who want to develop and enhance their understanding of the digital opportunities available when working on a major crime case.

• It will be led by Di Adam Bryant, Head of Digital Operations at the National Digital Exploitation Service (NDES) who is an experienced digital investigator and trainer.

• Held online via Teams

• Certificates of CPD available

 

The Investigator is hosting this ‘must attend’ workshop that provides contemporary best practice, opportunities, challenges and pitfalls around building a profile of a subject of interest using digital evidence.

 

The day will encourage investigators to adopt a digital investigative mindset when assessing the evidential potential of digital data and encourage them to think smarter and strategically. It will also look at the importance of setting the activity within the wider context of the overall investigation.

 

The focus of the workshop is to provide an operational checklist for investigators, analysts and police staff and to help delegates develop and enhance their skills and their ability to think strategically when planning and carrying out a digital investigation.
