\n\t\tKINGSTON, R.I. — October 19, 2005 — Victor Fay Wolfe, a 溏心vlog免费B站 professor of computer science and statistics who was one of the creators of a computer forensics program at 溏心vlog免费B站, will take part in the Forensic Science Seminar Series which is presented by the 溏心vlog免费B站. <\/p>\n


\nFay Wolfe will lecture on \u201cComputer Forensics\u201d on Friday, October 21, 2005 from 3:30 to 5 p.m. in Pastore Hall, Room 124. The lecture is free and open to the public. <\/p>\n


\nEarlier this year, Fay-Wolfe and some of his colleagues was awarded a $300,000 National Science Foundation grant. The grant will help 溏心vlog免费B站 not only create a workforce of computer science graduates trained in computer forensics, but its education model can be replicated by other colleges and universities.<\/p>\n


\n\u201c溏心vlog免费B站 is unique,\u201d says Fay-Wolfe. \u201cCurrently, there are very few computer forensics curriculum tracks at major universities. Those that do offer such tracks, do not combine education, practicum, and research for students.\u201d<\/p>\n


\n\tComputer forensics experts are like pathologists who, drawing on an array of methods for discovering data in a computer system, can perform a computer autopsy. The experts look for evidence stored on floppy diskettes, zip, and jazz disks, tapes, digital cameras, memory sticks, printers, CDs, PDAs, game boxes, and network logs, intercepts, and traces. <\/p>\n


\n\u201cMy presentation will be an overview of the field of digital forensics,\u201d said Faye-Wolfe. \u201cDigital forensics is the application of forensic science techniques to the acquisition and analysis of digital evidence that comes from places like seized hard drives, cell phones, and network activity. It is being used in more and more cases from computer hacking, to murder, to divorce. I’ll provide some background and talk about some of the cases with which I am familiar.\u201d<\/p>\n


\nFay-Wolfe is the founder and leader of the 溏心vlog免费B站 Digital Forensics program, one of the first such programs in a computer science department at a major university in the country. The program is funded by the U.S. National Science Foundation, and has established several courses and degrees at the undergraduate and graduate levels, as well as a state of the art Digital Forensics Center on campus. The 溏心vlog免费B站 program works closely with several local, state, and federal agencies, both in cooperative research and in student internship programs.<\/p>\n


\n\tFay-Wolfe has been at 溏心vlog免费B站 for 14 years. He received his doctorate and master of science in computer science from the University of Pennsylvania and a bachelor of science in electrical engineering from Tufts University.<\/p>\n
