Presentation Title: How the Leopard Hides His Spots - OS X Anti-Forensics Techniques
Presentation Abstract:
Anti-Forensics is the buzzword within forensic circles, and yet there is very little new information on this critical topic. This talk will retrace the core anti-forensic techniques and methodologies, and show how they can be applied to defeat forensic analysis of OS X systems. This talk will include attacks against the OS X file system (HFS+), as well as attacks beyond the file system. There will be 0-day OS X bugs as well as previously unreleased attacks against Microsoft file systems.
If you are a hacker, you’ll discover a new world of data storage, and if you’re a forensic investigator… be prepared to never discover anything again.
