CeCOS VI will gather top experts representing financial services, technology, government, law enforcement, communications sectors, and research centers to review the development of response systems and resources available to counter-cybercrime managers and forensic professionals from around the world.

Presenters at this high-level, multi-national conference will help to identify common forensic needs, including data tools and communications protocols required to harmonize cybercrime response across borders and between private sector financial and industrial sector responders and public sector policy professionals and law enforcement.

CeCOS VI will also investigate policies that complicate the work of exploited brand holders and responders including the domain name system (DNS) registration process that is abused by phishers as part of phishing campaigns.

Key presentations will include:

• Toward a Universal eCrime Taxonomy for Industry and Law Enforcement; by Iain Swaine, Ensequrity.
  
• Budapest Convention on Cybercrime: Transborder Law Enforcement Access to Data; by Alexander Seger, Director of the Data Protection and Cybercrime Division of the Council of Europe.
