[GNHLUG] CentraLUG, November 6th: Andy Bair and Digital Forensic File Carving Techniques

[Ted Roche]

The monthly meeting of CentraLUG, the Concord/Central NH GNHLUG  
chapter, happens the first Monday of (most) month on the New  
Hampshire Institute Campus starting at 7 PM.

Directions and maps are available on the NHTI site at http:// 
www.nhti.edu/welcome/directions.htm. This month, we'll be meeting in  
the Library/Learning Center/Bookstore, room 146, marked as "I" on  
that map. The main meeting starts at 7 PM, and we finish by 9 PM.  
Open to the public. Tell your friends.

For November's meeting, Andy Bair will present "Digital Forensic File  
Carving Techniques." Data carving techniques are used during digital  
forensic investigations and existing file carving tools typically  
produce many false positives.  This briefing describes new tools and  
techniques used by the winning team of the the 2006 File Carving  
Challenge held at the 6th Annual Digital Forensic Research Workshop  
(DFRWS). The current briefing is also located here: [1]

In December, Tim Link of Computerborough [2] will present TrixBox[3],  
the Linux distro for running the Asterisk PBX software [4], formerly  
known as "Asterisk @ Home."

January's meeting falls on the first, so we'll likely skip the  
month's meeting. However, stay tuned for some exciting meetings  
coming up in 2007!
