GDPR and the Cloud
Today I attended Scot-Cloud in Edinburgh, a free conference hosted by Digit, an independent business technology community in Scotland. Lots of conversation about GDPR, in fact it was mentioned in all of the talks and had two specific talks on it too. The first talk was by Martin Sloan of Brodies LLP Solicitors and second talk by Lilian Edwards, a … Continue reading GDPR and the Cloud
“Women in Technology”
Two weeks ago I was at an ISACA Scotland Chapter event where they mentioned an upcoming âWomen in ITâ event to be held in November. This is all great stuff to get more women involved in security / IT in general but I feel events like these are advertised to the wrong people - I highly doubt … Continue reading “Women in Technology”
Smartphone location tracking
Another great talk at the mobile cyber security conference a few weeks ago was by Glenn Wilkinson who talked about his software called snoopy which is able to track and profile mobile devices based on their wifi. He has a very cool drone which he flies over areas to probe the mobile phones in the area below. Sadly no … Continue reading Smartphone location tracking

Odd talked about the multiple operating systems (OS) in smartphones; which at first I was surprised at, but actually makes … Continue reading Smartphone SMS ‘hacking’
4th International Conference on Cyber Security & Education
On Friday I went to the 4th International Conference on Cyber Security and Education, held at the Scottish Police College in Tullillan Castle. There were loads of really interesting talks and I think the only let down was the lack of abstracts/summaries of each talk; so often I was blindly going into a talk in one … Continue reading 4th International Conference on Cyber Security & Education

CyberForensics Conference 2014 – Day 2
Day 2 was just as good as day one, here are the highlights: Ethan Bayne presented on how to use GPUs to speed up carving and searching for files in a forensic image. Amazingly this has not been done yet, and the results he presented were spectacular as you can imagine! Essentially it's just parallelising a … Continue reading CyberForensics Conference 2014 – Day 2
CyberForensics Conference 2014 – Day 1
Today I attended and spoke at day one of two of the 4th Cybercrime, Security and Digital Forensics Conference 2014, held at Strathclyde University in Glasgow. My presentation was one an open source project I have been working away at for the last 3 or 4 months, and I'll do a more detailed update on that later … Continue reading CyberForensics Conference 2014 – Day 1
UK Digital Forensics Conferences 2012
Last year I did a post with the symposiums and conferences I found relating to digital forensics for the coming year as I could not find an authoritative source. Here is the 2012 list. Please add any more conferences as a comment or email me and I'll add them in. I'm sure there will be at least … Continue reading UK Digital Forensics Conferences 2012
