NeFX 2009

The First Annual ACM Northeast Digital Forensics Exchange


July 20-21, 2009 @ John Jay College of Criminal Justice/CUNY


LOCATION: Room 630, 899 10th Ave., New York, NY 10019


DIRECTIONS: Take any of the A, C, B, D, or 1 trains; get off at 59th street - Columbus Circle; then walk two blocks West.


The ACM Northeast Digital Forensics Exchange (NeFX) is a workshop, sponsored in part by the National Science Foundation, to foster collaboration on digital forensics and information assurance between federal and state law enforcement, academia, and industry. Our goal is to bring together leading practitioners and academics in order to yield partnerships that advance research on digital forensic science through mutual sharing of the problems of practice and research.

Grants to Attend for LE, including hotel stay, are now available!

Who should attend:


  • Investigators and prosecutors who would like to share their experience with academics and explore solutions to the technical network problems they face when doing digital forensics.
  • Academics and researchers who would like enhanced contact with practitioners to inform research agendas.
  • Industry practitioners and tool developers who wish to have stronger links to researchers and law enforcement.
  • Graduate students interested in digital forensics.

What you will learn:

The general theme of the workshop program will be the link between the use of computer networks and high technology crime. Of particular concern are child sexual exploitation crimes, crimes involving mobile systems, and identity theft and privacy.

NeFX is an arena for exchanging views on technical and practical issues related to investigations and information assurance. The program will be comprised of a set of invited presentations, panels and focus group discussions hosted by leaders in the field, complemented by a set of cross-field training and tutorials aimed at all levels.

Our motivation is two fold. First, we wish to inform and enhance the research agendas of academics through the field experiences of detectives and prosecutors and the limitations they see in current practices. Second, we wish to inform and enhance current practices and general knowledge by sharing the latest results of researchers.
