Description of the Problem

I am the founding criminal investigator of the Denver District Attorney's Office Digital Crimes Unit. As a subject matter expert in digital forensics and the lead investigator for all crimes that utilize digital devices and communications, it is critical that I stay up-to-date on emerging industry technology, best practices, and trends. Resources available to me in this role are limited, so attending the Scientific Working Group on Digital Evidence (SWGDE) would be greatly beneficial to ensure I am maintaining a strong understanding of the field.
