Dear colleagues: 

The ADFSL 2011 Conference on Digital Forensics, Security and Law will be
hosted by Longwood University and held at the Omni Hotel in Richmond,
Virginia on 25-27 of May 2011. 

The ADFSL Conference on Digital Forensics, Security and Law is a unique
and innovative event.  It is managed by the Association of Digital
Forensics, Security and Law (ADFSL). The conference focuses on the
current and expanding role of digital forensics within investigations
and the courts as well as its important role within cyber security -
both national as well as corporate. Topics not only include technology
and evidence, but also are very much focused on how to prepare students
for careers in digital forensics. Curriculum is a very important topic
at the conference and the new DoD initiative on certification and
Centers of Academic Excellence will be very important areas of
discourse. Conference papers are double blind refereed and provide a
forum for high quality research, communication and debate on the subject
of digital forensics and directly related fields.

Opening Remarks

This year's opening remarks will be delivered by Longwood University's
new president, Brigadier General Patrick Finnegan. Brigadier General
Finnegan was previously at West Point having been confirmed by the
United States Senate as its 12th Dean of the Academic Board. Brigadier
General Finnegan was selected as Longwood University's 25th president in
March 2010 and assumed his duties in that position on July 1, 2010.
Brigadier General Finnegan was born in Fukuoka, Japan, on September
20th, 1949, and was appointed to the United States Military Academy in
1967. As a cadet, he was the Chairman of the Honor Committee and Head
Manager of the Army Football Team. After graduating from West Point and
being commissioned a second lieutenant in 1971, he attended the Kennedy
School of Government at Harvard University and earned a Master of Public
Administration degree in 1973.

Keynote Speakers

Our Wednesday Keynote Speaker will be Brian Snow. Brian Snow was
previously with the NSA is now a Security Consultant and Ethics Advisor.
Brian's years at NSA were the model for what it means to be a senior
Technical Director at NSA (similar to a Chief Scientist or Senior
Technical Fellow in industry); he served in that capacity in three major
mission components: The Research Directorate (1994-1995), The
Information Assurance Directorate (1996-2002), and The Directorate for
Education and Training - NSA's Corporate University (2003-2006). He was
the first Technical Director appointed at the "Key Component" level at
NSA, and the only "techie" at NSA to serve in such a role across three
different Directorates.

Our Thursday Keynote Speaker will be Ricky Windsor. Mr. Windsor leads
multiple programs within the DC3 Future Explorations directorate
focusing on digital forensics education, resource sharing, and
consolidation across the Law Enforcement, Counter Intelligence,
Intelligence Community, Academia, and the Department of Defense.
