Global Mobile Telephone Forensics and Evidence

Global Mobile Telephone Forensics and Evidence

It is interesting to note, and a subject matter I have been keenly watching since this webblog started, the importance of mobile telephone forensics and evidence is receiving around the globe. It is very easy to get submersed into one's own country's (UK) activities in this area and forget how other countries have significantly increased their activities in forensics and evidence too. Below is a sample of the global visitors to trewmte.blogspot in the last 20 days. Some countries will have more visitors than others, but in itself that does not dent the relevance of the global following interested in mobile telephone forensics and evidence.

It would be good to get more feedback from law enforcement, universities, forensic examiners and experts from around the global who, rather than lurk in the background, may like to suggest the type of information you would like to see at this webblog. I have been dealing with a variety of mobile telephone examination and evidence issues (SIM/USIM, handset and cell site) for many years and hopefully topics you raise for discussion can be answered here. I should point out, as I have in the past at this webblog (http://trewmte.blogspot.com/2006/11/cell-site-analysis.html), the more I know, the more I need to know, therefore I don't know everything, but I am willing to try and find out.

Additionally, as there are no academic qualifications designed precisely for mobile telephone forensics and evidence - no PhD, MSc, BSc, CEng or anything else, this means qualifications in other subjects other than this subject matter tend to get used as a passport, suggesting qualification to deal with mobile telephone forensics and evidence. To overcome that difficulty I have prepared a Diploma in Mobile Telephone Evidence that may help those who seek recognition for the skillsets they have acquired. The Diploma is not a PhD, MSc etc but it is the good old fashioned Diploma where your knowledge and skillsest need to be demonstrated and will be tested.

If you would like to know more about the Diploma please send an email to me, Greg Smith. My email is shown at the top righthand side of this webblog page.
