Topic:    The New Forensics -- Corporate Fraud and the Discovery of
          Electronic Evidence

Speaker:  Joe Anastasi
          Deloitte -- Forensics Investigations and Disputes Global Practice
          Leader

About the talk:

Corporate Fraud is alive and well -- and so is the business of
investigating it.

Joe Anastasi, author of The New Forensics: Investigating
Corporate Fraud and the Theft of Intellectual Property, will
share his insights into his investigations of white-collar crime
and cybercrime. Via business forensics, vignettes, and actual
crime reports, Anastasi will describe how digital detectives use
sophisticated tools, such as "adaptive pattern-recognition
software" (spawned from NSA and CIA predecessor applications), to
shine the light on such shady dealings as the theft of trade
secrets and money laundering. Anastasi will also cover the use of
data mining as an investigative tool, and the use of
sophisticated anomaly-detection software to ferret out fraud.
