<b>There has been a noticeable increase in the development and use of drones in society over the past few years.</b> Hear how an Edith Cowan University cyber research team used digital forensics techniques, as part of the Spectrum Watch project, to analyse drones to deliver real world ready results.<br><br><b>Overview</b><br>The digital forensics aspect of the Spectrum Watch project involved the thorough forensic analysis and review of drones, their existing code as well as the analysis of a mobile device used to operate the drone. <br><br>At the end of the investigative process, as well as aiding the research involved with the Spectrum Watch Project, the team was required to develop a technical how-to guide; which included all findings and gave step-by-step instructions on how to obtain each data artefact. An application of the guide could include authorities utilising the report to find specific data from a captured drone.<br><br><b>Speakers<br>Professor Craig Valli<br>Director, ECU Security Research Institute</b><br> <br>Professor Valli has over 30 years’ experience in the ICT Industry, and regularly consults with industry and government, conducting research on securing networks and critical infrastructures, detection of network borne threats, forensic analysis of cyber security incidents, network security and digital forensics.
