Cemal Dikmen , CTO, SS8
In this session, the impact of new technologies such as IMS and LTE on CALEA compliance shall be discussed. Technologies like LTE provide a much larger data pipe to the consumers, and therefore, has performance implications on the existing solutions. However, architectures like IMS allow carriers to offer flexible services and have functional impacts on the existing solutions, as well as on the existing standards.

Session A Dynamic Triggering in LI
Rudolf Winschuh, Business Development Manager, Utimaco LIMS
The transition of networks from PSTN dominated by monolithic switches to VoIP and NGN networks with distributed, heterogeneous network nodes, dynamic session setups and access independence makes LI a complex task and requires dynamic solutions. This presentation will highlight the technical fundaments of VoIP and NGN networks, the consequences for lawful interception, possible solutions and benefits for LEAs.

Session B Deep Application-Protocol Inspection at Wire Speed
Dr. Glen Myers, CEO, IP Fabrics
Interception of general network traffic, with the notable exception of voice, is largely impractical unless the intercepting function is capable of "DAPI," or Deep Application-Protocol Inspection. This talk will illustrate why this is so, explain why deep packet inspection (DPI) is insufficient, and give examples using applications such as webmail and instant messaging.

Session B Practical Applications of Network Forensics for Cyber Warfare Defense and Real-Time Surveillance
Eddie Schwartz, CSO, NetWitness Corporation
Many of today's network-based advanced persistent threats from state-sponsored attackers and organized crime groups are evading detection, but can yield valuable intelligence and investigative value. This session focuses on the true nature and sources of today's most difficult security threats to governments and major corporations, and describes actual solutions, both technology and operations-related, required to detect and mitigate these invisible threats. The speaker will illustrate actual technical case studies from the commercial and public sector to describe an effective operational plan of action consisting of the use of lawful and covert network-based interception, automated reporting and alerting, and interactive threat analysis applications built upon a distributed full packet capture and session reconstruction infrastructure. The session will demonstrate techniques that will enable your investigative and intelligence staff to surveill network and application layer traffic, detect designer malware and zero-day attacks, and improve overall tactical network visibility and situational awareness, including problems such as data leakage and exfiltration of valuable organizational data.
Attendees will learn:
- The technical reasons that advanced persistent threats are evading current perimeter-based point solutions such as IDS, log monitoring and flow-based technologies.
- The true nature and sources of threats facing public and private organizations and the gaps in current network visibility.
- Advanced techniques for next generation network forensics and real-time network surveillance using full packet capture and session reconstruction, and the situational awareness improvements provided by this approach.
- Specific examples of adversary exploits (demonstrations) similar to trends observed within organized crime groups and state- sponsored attacks.

Mike Coward, CTO, Continuous Computing
Multi-core architectures have become the standard approach for high-speed packet processing and Deep Packet Inspection (DPI), but the demands of the network continue to scale faster than silicon, meaning that systems must deploy many multi-core devices to reach the performance targets of 40G and 100G. These architectures require new approaches to thinking about how to distribute traffic first between chips and then between cores, with multiple stages of traffic distribution and load balancing. This presentation will discuss the requirements for packing processing at 40G and 100G, and address system architectures and design techniques that allow commercial multi-core processors to scale to these new performance targets.

There are over 150 virtual worlds and massive multiplayer online games, with over 200 additional expected to be released in the next year. Each is a community in which people and organizations from around the real world can interact. There are over 11 million users in World of Warcraft alone. Many virtual worlds have their own virtual economies with real-world exchange rates. As in the real world, these virtual communities have an inevitable criminal population.
These sessions will build on each other to provide a cogent and focused picture of how criminals communicate, exchange funds, and commit crimes on these environments. This ability presents an unprecedented challenge for the Intelligence and law enforcement communities. It also presents unprecedented opportunities for exploitation by those that understand the implications of this emerging technology.

Track 6: ISS for Intelligence Gathering and Analysis
Dr. Alex Karp, CEO, Palantir Technologies
Intelligence professionals would like to have a highly adaptive analytical platform with which they can discover, visualize, and think against patterns in enormous and disparate data sets. Policymakers and much of the public recognize this need, but also seek assurances regarding privacy and civil liberties. Palantir’s analytical platforms have shown that it is possible to implement an access control model that safeguards liberty while also powerfully enhancing intelligence and security operations.

Session A Covert Intercepts in High-Stakes Environments
Victor Oppleman, President, Packet Forensics
In law enforcement or intelligence operations or inside any inhospitable network, the need to collect various forms of intelligence and covertly deliver it in real-time represents a unique challenge, different than what traditional probes can provide. In this talk, we'll present our system for automatically learning the target network topology, performing intercepts, and reporting-back while avoiding detection, requiring almost no pre-deployment network intelligence. This speech will include live demonstrations of real-world scenarios.

Session A Application Targeting and Traffic Analysis: The Future of Lawful Intercept
Paul Zoda, Director, Federal Engineering, Narus
In the future, law enforcement will be forced to specify targets by their application name and type rather than numerical values like IP addresses as users will increasingly use mobile equipment where their location on the network is unknown. A network user's ability to receive and forward traffic via remote agents will become increasingly prevalent, so that again hard identification based on network location and address will have far less meaning than today. The ability to keep track of this data and retain it also becomes much more critical. With huge volumes of data and meta data collected and retained, new methods are required to search and display captured data embedded in the stored traffic for rapid and complete analysis. This technology will become a key component of future traffic intelligence systems.

Session A Cell Phone Call and Cell Tower Records for Investigators
Brent Bailey, Director, Cellular Data Resources, LLC
Call Detail Records, or CDR's, are the non-voice records of every communications event experienced by a mobile phone. Investigators who can read, understand and interpret CDR's can find a wealth of potential evidence. In this session, Cellular Data Resources will demonstrate analysis and presentation techniques using a sample set of CDR's to provide attendees with practical skills they can use in their investigations.
