court, with a special focus on internet searches.
Key topics
- Technical issues (internet caches, proxy servers, encryption, deep/dark web, etc.)
- Legal issues (evaluation of the search results, reliability and credibility of authentication, search across jurisdictions)
- Presenting internet searches in court: prosecution and defence perspectives
- Procedural issues and jurisdictional conflicts
- Remote investigations
