VoIP Infrastructure and Lawful Interception

* VoIP Basics: Circuit switching versus VoIP, softswitches, gateways, VoIP over broadband and interconnection with the PSTN.

* VoIP Intercept: Options for intercept: routers, session borders controllers, layer 2 intercept, intelligent probes, LEA to telecom operator provisioning, mediation setup/teardown, signaling and IP content collection.

P2P Infrastructure and Lawful Interception/Blocking

* P2P Basics: what’s peer to peer( P2P) networking, hybrid P2P ( e.g. Napster) vs. true P2P ( e.g. Gnutella and BiTorrent), legitimate P2P networks, what’s Skype, how it works and how to block it.

* Deep Packet Inspection: what is it and why is it needed, how does real time surveillance work, isolating traffic streams points of DPI deployment and more.

Mobile Wireless Infrastructure and Interception

* Overview: Infrastructure basics (GSM, GPRS, EDGE, UMTS, HSPDA and CDMA), smart terminals, HLR, VLR and IMS.

* Wireless Intercept : intercept at the switch, cell site or tactical monitoring, location based technologies to track targets, what call usage data is available, call detail records, SIM vs. phone memory, cell site analysis to established targets travel path and more.

Understanding Cybersecurity for LEAs, Telecom Operators and ISPs
This 1 Day training seminar is for law enforcement agents, service providers and enterprise security managers who have to understand the Internet and Cybersecurity.
Presented by:
Detective Sergeant Andrew W. Donofrio and Invited Faculty
Bergen County Prosecutors Office, New Jersey Criminal Investigation Division- Computer Crimes Unit


10:30am – 12:00pm
Introduction Botnets
Botnet is a term to refer to a collection of software robots, or bots, which run autonomously. Botnets are typically used for nefarious purposes and threaten an Internet Service Provider’s customer base and the Internet Community as a whole. This session will examine the technology behind botnets, the criminal usage, and methods of deployment

1:00pm – 2:00pm
Detecting Botnets and DDoS Attacks and Responding
This session will examine botnet behavior and discuss ways to identify botnets. Other Denial of Service Attacks will also be discussed. Responding to the threat of botnets and denial of service attacks will be examined

2:30pm - 3:30pm
Introduction to Malware and Analysis
The problems examined in Sessions one and two are often predicated on a proliferation of malicious software (maleware) such as viruses, Trojans, spyware, etc. This session will provided an overview of maleware characteristics and methods for reverse engineering it.

Track 5 B: LEA and Intelligence Analysts Training

To attend LEA Training Track 5B, you must be a sworn US or International Law Enforcement Officer, Intelligence Analyst, Homeland Security, Justice, Interior or other Government Employee with counterterrorism or criminal investigation responsibilities. Government Picture ID required for entry to Track 5B Training Classrooms Certificates of training completion will be available upon request.


Understanding Internet Intercept
Tuesday, May 29, 2007
9:00-5:00 p.m.


Presented by
Detective Sergeant Andrew W. Donofrio and Invited Faculty
Bergen County Prosecutors Office, New Jersey Criminal Investigation Division- Computer Crimes Unit

This one day training seminar is for law enforcement agents who have to understand the Internet, how to lawfully collect and analyze data and how to interface with Internet Service Providers (ISP) of the target.

Introduction to Computer Forensic and the Forensic Modality
This session will outline the ways in which computer data is arranged on storage media such as a hard drive, and the evidence that may exist within the data. It will cover the methods for preserving and acquiring data as well as a broad overview of forensic analysis of computer storage devices and other electronic media.

File System Analysis Concepts – Data Remnants and Recovery
This session will delve into the areas of the storage media that contain evidentiary data. It will explain deleted data, slack space data, and unallocated space. A brief overview of Operating System evidence, such as the windows registry, will also be covered.

Live Computer Incident Response: Collecting Live Evidence
In today’s computer world, investigators are continually faced with responding to and dealing with running (live) computer evidence. While sessions one and two deal with the forensic analysis of storage media, this session deals with live computer evidence; evidence that exists in RAM and other places which will be lost upon the discontinuation of power The actions that are taken during this initial response can either preserve or eradicate data. This session will outline the proper steps for responding to the live computer incident and for preserving volatile data. Real world tools will be demonstrated. This is particularly important in the Windows Vista world and where other Encryption algorithms may be used.

Data Taps – Technology Overview for Tapping Data Connections
The ability to intercept and monitor communications has spilled almost entirely into the world of data. This session will focus on those situations where monitoring computer network traffic is applicable. Additionally, it will discuss methods and technologies for monitoring.
Tuesday and Wednesday, May 29-May 30, 2007
