FBI Director Robert Mueller confirmed that the bureau has renewed its push for a new Internet wiretapping law, which CNET reported two weeks ago.
In an appearance this week on Capitol Hill, Mueller downplayed privacy concerns, saying the FBI’s wiretap proposals — social-networking Web sites and providers of VoIP, la messagerie instantanée, and Web e-mail are the primary targets — would still require a court to be involved.
Digital forensic investigators have a new technique for recovering the data stored on an iPhone or iPad: ElcomSoft has updated its Phone Password Breaker cracking tool to automatically retrieve iOS device backups from the Apple iCloud.
“Phone Password Breaker becomes an alternative way to get access to iOS devices’ contenu,” said Vladimir Katalov, CEO of Moscow-based ElcomSoft, dans un communiqué. “With a valid Apple ID and a password, investigators can not only retrieve backups to seized devices, but access that information in real time while the phone is still in the hands of a suspect.”
Information from iPhone backups is in high demand by forensic customers, according to ElcomSoft. No wonder, since an estimated 125 million Apple users store some type of data in iCloud, which offers 5GB of storage for free, and which is easily enabled via a checkbox in the iOS device settings. By accessing data stored in an iCloud backup, investigators could keep tabs on a suspect without the suspect having any idea that their cloud-based data was being accessed.

Alors, let’s say you’re doing a Google search for “Kings.” Did you mean the L.A. hockey team or the Sacramento basketball team? Maybe the TV show? Or maybe you actually wanted to know something about monarchs.
Google on Wednesday announced Knowledge Graph, a significant change to how search results are delivered that the company believes will make their search engine think more like a human.
“The web pages we [currently] return for the search ‘kings,’ they’re all good,” Jack Menzel, director of product management at Google, told CNN in an interview. “You, as a human, associate those words with their real-world meaning but, for a computer, they’re just a random string of characters.”
With Knowledge Graph, which will begin rolling out to some users immediately, results will be arranged according to categories with which the search term has been associated. Alors, in the above example, boxes will appear with separate results for the hockey team, basketball team and TV show.

WikiLeaks has recovered from a massive DDoS attack that lasted three days, during which it had to shift much of its content to mirror sites. It’s unclear which hacker group or individual may be responsible for the attack, but a former Anonymous member by the name Nyre has already claimed credit for a similar DDoS attack on The Pirate Bay earlier this week that lasted over 24 heures.

When Tyson Foods Inc. (TSN) (TSN) and Wal-Mart Stores Inc. (WMT) (WMT) received internal reports that employees may have paid bribes in Mexico, each faced the same vexing question: should they turn themselves in to U.S. les autorités?
Tyson, le plus grand U.S. food processor (TSN), avoided prosecution by paying $5.2 million and admitting it made improper payments to government-employed inspectors. Wal-Mart, the world’s largest retailer, began an internal probe in 2005, shut it down and didn’t disclose the matter to regulators and prosecutors until late last year, after learning the New York Times was investigating, le journal.
Les États-Unis. offers leniency to companies like Tyson that self- rapport. Yet many choose to remain quiet, calculating that they will cooperate with the government if it uncovers their bribery. Companies root out their wrongdoing and improve their compliance programs, assuming that any credit the government gives them for self-reporting is not worth the fines and penalties and negative publicity that follow disclosure.

In Paulina Connery v. Generations Family Medicine, P.C., et al, Plaintiff allegedly changed the bodies of emails sent from Defendants to Plaintiff and used the emails as evidence to support her claim. Plaintiff sued defendant under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act for sexual harrassment as well as Defendants’ retaliation for Plaintiff threatening to file a charge with EEOC.
One of the bodies of the emails Plaintiff supplied to Defendant in paper format is an instruction from the Defendant’s practice administrator to Plaintiff “not to discuss your employment with employees here at GFP or EHS also not to contact EEOC or any outside party”. Defendants’ alleged that the email was falsified and provided analysis from an independent forensic analyst that confirmed their suspicion. Based on the expert’s affidavit, it appears that Plaintiff changed the body of the message when she forwarded it to her personal email account to make it seem as if the practice administrator sent the damaging email. While it is difficult to change the body of a sent email without a lot of computer knowledge, it is very easy to edit the body of an email that is being forwarded. In the Connery case, the forensic expert located the original email that was used as the basis of the forwarded message and determined that it did not mention EEOC at all.
A second email presented by plaintiff in paper format and sent from one of the male Defendants to the Plaintiff states “I was told that you and Bao have your “approach” with one another after hours. I am just kidding around.” The email chain continues with plaintiff responding, “On a personal note please – please STOP!!!!!! helping/creating/talking these gossip rumors about Dr. (name ommitted) and I are having an affair, staying late after work or anything that feed the gossip fire at our office.” Once again the email was a forwarded email and Defendants expert determined that the original email used as a basis for the forwarded email contained no such language.

This paper introduces the BitCurator Project, which aims to incorporate digital forensics tools and methods into collecting institutions’ workflows. BitCurator is a collaborative effort led by the School of Information and Library Science (SILS) at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and Maryland Institute for Technology in the Humanities (MITH) at the University of Maryland. The project arose from a perceived need in the library/archives community to develop digital forensics tools with interfaces, documentation, and functionality that can support the workflows of collecting institutions. This paper describes current efforts, ongoing work, and implications for future development of forensic-based, analytic software for born-digital materials.

M.. Al Solami, from QUT’s School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science has developed an algorithmic system to capture and analyse the keystroke dynamics of keyboard users in a single session to enable user authentication throughout a typing session.
“Researchers have known for decades that people have unique typing styles but until now authentication has relied on the typing of the username and password and comparing it with current data.
“So while current computer systems can authorise the user at the start of a session they do not detect whether the current user is still the initial authorised user, a substitute user, or an intruder pretending to be a valid user.
“This makes a system that can continuously check the identity of the user throughout a session necessary. My research has developed such a system called a continuous authentication system (CAS).”

En avril 2009, Chief Justice Rabner of the Supreme Court of New Jersey appointed the Supreme Court Special Committee on Discovery in Criminal and Quasi-Criminal Matters (hereinafter the Committee). The Committee “was appointed to recommend solutions to a variety of issues that had arisen as the result of the increasing use of electronically stored information in criminal cases.” After significant investigation, the Committee has recently reported its recommendations, which include both proposed amendments to several rules as well as “non-rule recommendations.”

A RARE slip-up by lawyers has helped to shed some rather interesting light on a high-profile legal battle, the details of which some of the largest Wall Street firms have been fighting to keep under wraps. Dans 2007 Overstock, a Utah-based online retailer, sued a dozen big brokers, alleging that they had caused its share price to fall sharply by helping their clients to engage in “naked” short selling.
In a normal short sale, the shares are borrowed (or at least “located”) with a broker’s help before being sold. In the naked version, there is no attempt to pre-borrow the stock or even check that it exists. This can create “fails to deliver”, where the trade is not settled when it should be because there are not enough actual shares available for delivery. This messes with the laws of supply and demand, allowing shorting to take place beyond the natural limits set by the number of borrowable shares. Regulators have long frowned upon naked shorting. The rules against the practice have been tightened up a number of times over the past seven years.
