Join Monica Harris, Product Manager at Cellebrite Enterprise Solutions for an educational discussion on the what, when, why and how of modern data collections for legal teams.

Deepfake Videos And Altered Images - A Challenge For Digital Forensics?

Forensic Focus 13th February 2023 10:30 am

In this episode, Si and Desi talk to Matt Suiche from Magnet Forensics about the rise of e-crime and info stealers.

They look at the latest shifts in how cybercriminals are operating, with a lot of ransomware gangs now moving towards hacking, stealing, extortion and leaking documents, rather than blindly encrypting files.

They also examine the importance of memory forensics in trying to detect active threats within a network, and how ChatGPT – a chatbot launched by OpenAI in November last year – could be leveraged to create functioning malware.
