[Vol-users] Open Memory Forensics Workshop 2014

vol-users, Registration has officially opened for the 6th Annual Open Memory Forensics Workshop (OMFW) 2014. This half-day workshop will be held prior to the 2014 Open Source Digital Forensics Conference (OSDFC) in Herndon, VA, USA, on November 4, 2014. "OMFW is the only digital forensics workshop focused on providing a venue for the most advanced digital investigators. It is intended for those people who realize that the only real defense against a creative technical human adversary is a creative technical human analyst. No shady vendors trying to describe how they re-implemented open source tools or boisterous trainers attempting to discuss topics they only superficially understand. This is your opportunity to learn directly from an international cadre of pioneering researchers and practitioners who have been shaping the field of memory analysis since its inception. Through a series of invited talks you will have the opportunity to engage this exciting community." We are still accepting presentations from people who are performing innovative memory analysis research or from people who have interesting case studies where memory forensics provided a critical component of the investigation. If you are interested in participating, please contact us. Submissions are due no later than October 1, 2014. This year's workshop will also present the results of The 2nd Annual Volatility Framework Plugin Contest! If you are interested in presenting at the conference, submitting a contest entry is another option. Selected contestants may be asked to present their work at the workshop and have it featured on the Volatility Labs Blog. All contest submissions are due by September 1, 2014.
