The Diana Initiative 2020

Friends and family ask for assistance installing WiFi or configuring smart devices in the house. They are now asking members of the InfoSec community for help ‘fixing my situation' to digitally detach domestic disputes.
The attendees will leave with the fundamentals to assist their community with the same fundamentals which are applied with Operation Safe Escape clients,  NATO special forces training, and corporate Digital Forensic/Insider Threat centers.


The very same Internet of Things which are installed for convenience can form agilded, velvet lined cage with an Alexa or Siri voice.


I will discuss how our community can apply InfoSec principles and forensic principles to assist domestic abuse victims cutting the electronic cord to their abuser.



The counterintelligence mindset should be applied to the domestic situation what can be gathered, what sources and methods can be used against a person in their own house and how to detect the threat.



The talk will discuss the use of social media to detect physical surveillance, technical countermeasures for surveillance devices, lessons learned with forensics...and the ways to protect oneself against leaving data behind.
