Women: The future of forensic computing?

Workshop at DFRWS EU 2019

April 24, 2019, National Criminal Investigation Service (KRIPOS), Oslo, Norway

Speakers and some attendees after the workshop in Oslo.

The aim of this workshop was to increase awareness and appreciation of the achievements of women in the area of forensic computing/digital forensics. This workshop wishes to be a forum to help women build their technical confidence and thereby attract more female researchers to the field. This year’s workshop also included room for discussion regarding similar future events and provided possibilities for community building. Suggestions for followup activities and possible invited speakers at future events can be sent to the organizers.
