NEWS & EVENTS > NEUBECKER'S CLE SEMINAR AT THE CHICAGO BAR ASSOCIATION
Neubecker's CLE Seminar at the Chicago Bar Association
CHICAGO: May 6, 2004 - Lee Neubecker, President and CEO of
Forensicon, a computer forensics and electronic discovery firm in Chicago,
presents "Computer Forensics for Lawyers" to the members of the Chicago Bar
Association and the legal community. This Continuing Legal Education (CLE)
seminar emphasizes the technology behind computer forensics, illuminating
legal experts on details they should target when facing an electronic
discovery case.
Neubecker gives an in-depth illustration on what happens to deleted files - where the missing information reside within the computer - and how computer forensics can trace intellectual property theft, IP addresses, evidence-tampering and internet activities. He also shares with the audience the industry best practices when managing a case that involves electronic evidence.
In addition, he addresses one of the more challenging cases in computer forensics that attorneys encounter, which is a suspect's use of evidence-elimination software to hide traces of unlawful activity. Neubecker sheds new light on the varying degrees of evidence removal using these purportedly effective software packages, and explains to the audience that even if a program is successful in wiping relevant data, hiding the traces of the software itself can be a task that is beyond most people's capability. Computer forensics can usually prove existence of such programs in a suspect's machine; hence, possibly proving that evidence-tampering is involved in a case.
The presentation, which is also webcast live on the Internet, is an hour and a half long, and the audience participates in a ten-minute Q&A session with Neubecker to wrap up the seminar..
