The members of the Conference Organizing Committees strongly urge you to attend the conference and partake in the many diverse learning opportunities and wide range of expertise available from the speakers, attendees and exhibitors that attend the conference. This year we are targeting to have 50 different exhibitors to present their products, hardware and software. These are products that you use in the lab, in the field, or just wish that you could have access to. There will be labs on how to use the products, and lecture sessions on the products, and other relevant topics to the field of computer, cell phone, digital, live, and network forensics, intrusion detection, and network security. And all of this is under one roof at the Atlanta Conference Center which is attached to the Hyatt Regency Hotel, site of the conference.

Where ever the conference is located, we suggest that attendees attempt to visit the sights and surrounding points of interest of the host city. Some of the fascinating things that are available in the Atlanta area are, The Georgia Aquarium, the famous Atlanta University Center, Centennial Olympic Park, site of the 1996 Centennial Olympic Games. CNN Studios, Children’s Museum, New World of Coca-Cola, Atlanta Botanical Garden and the famous Underground Atlanta – six city blocks transformed into a spirited marketplace with speciality stores, nightlife, and annual events. For you sports enthusiasts, you’ll want to visit Turner Field, home of the Atlanta Braves, Georgia Dome, home of the Atlanta Falcons and Philips Arena, home of the NBA Atlanta Hawks, NHL Atlanta Thrashers and Atlanta’s newest pro-sports team, the WNBA Atlanta Dream.

This conference is for you, to make new friends, to learn new procedures, to exchange knowledge, and to share your enthusiasm and interests in the fields of high technology crime and digital forensics. We hope that you have a wonderful time and experience.
