1:30-2:00	SMS, the forgotten source of intelligence! 3 billion users worldwide are sending 3 SMS per day in average. That’s a figure per year having 13 digits (3.285.000.000.000).  Mass Monitoring and Content Retention of SMS/MMS traffic is definitely a source of intelligence disregarded by many. This session gives insight in the ways of intelligence gathering in this massive amount of data. Dirk Schrader, Sales Director Utimaco LIMS
3:00-3:30	Context-Based Data Retention using Multi-Source Collection & Correlation In order to be relevant in today’s always-connected world, cyber investigative data retention solutions must mature beyond data storage engines that merely collect CDRs, IPDRs and server activity logs. This session introduces new technology to aggregate flow records from multiple data sources in order to create context-based data relationships that optimize data retention and help accelerate data mining and analysis. Joel Ebrahimi, Solutions Engineer, Bivio Networks

4:30-5:00	Metadata Extraction and Retention for IP Applications Extracting summary information about communications allows for analysts and investigators to use various tools to more efficiently harvest intelligence from intercepted data. However when using metadata, questions arise such as how granular the metadata needs to be, how to store the such records so they may be accessed quickly, and how to secure the records. This session will address the growing use and value of metadata analysis and practices in storing and accessing this information. Kevin McTiernan, Director Product Line Management, SS8
5:00-5:30	Overview: Data Retention in Europe – Current status from various aspects This presentation gives an overview about the legal requirements and best practices regarding the conversion in different countries. Ramon Mendez, Director Sales, Utimaco LIMS

New Congressional Proposals on Data Retention and Privacy. What's the Impact on Telecom Operators A law enforcement initiative gaining ground in Congress would require electronic communications service providers to store their user IP logs for at least one year. However, this data retention proposal faces a conflicting Congressional movement to strengthen on-line privacy by restricting the collection and retention of the same data. How should service providers position themselves in this emerging legislative fight? This panel will analyze the pending bills governing data retention and on-line privacy, including the concept of "Do-Not-Track," and propose a practical compromise. Joel M. Margolis, Senior Regulatory Counsel, Subsentio Todd P. McDermott, Vice President, Verint Systems
