About the Computer Forensics Show 2009
Today’s business environment continues to become more complex with strict regulatory and compliance requirements, increased scrutiny and the ever-present threat of litigation. Because most information today is created and is available only in an electronic format, electronic data and the ability to properly address it in a defensible manner is increasingly critical. IT Security and Computer Forensics are vital to any individual, company, or law practice dealing with sensitive information stored on digital media. The Computer Forensics Show will meet the needs of industry professionals by providing detailed information regarding the changes and advancements in the IT security marketplace. The event will highlight exhibits from some of the leading companies in the industry, complemented by a comprehensive conference program with the involvement of well known companies in the computer forensics industry.
