Ada Lovelace Commemorative Lecture – Forensic IT

Speaker: Siobhan Forster, Senior Commercial Dispute Consultant, IT Group

Modern organisations depend on their IT systems and infrastructure for their competitive and reputational survival. Yet visibly in the media or quietly behind the scenes, things can and do go wrong; with the outcome often meaning litigation between the provider and the client. Forensic IT has emerged as a discipline holding increasing importance in arbitration processes, seeking to analyse causes using evidence-based approaches in helping to resolve disputes.

Siobhan Forster, an expert in Forensic IT, will describe how she has developed her career in the discipline, the nature and content of her work and the tools and skills needed for success. Her talk will conclude with a personal look at the future of Forensic IT and its role in the Industry.
