stores and the ability of the investigators to make accurate conclusions based on the evidence

available. We will look at the contrasting final reports which are produced with the differing levels

of forensic evidence, highlighting the decisions that have to be made based on the varying level of

detail provided in the reports.
 
  
−
Someone for whom forensic investigation of web application exploits is a new topic will gain an

understanding of some of the forensic techniques possible. Whilst attendees who already have some
