Broken Arrow: applying InfoSec and Forensic practices to escape domestic abuse

Presented at BSidesLV 2019, Aug. 6, 2019, 3 p.m. (25 minutes).

I will discuss applying InfoSec principles and also forensic principles to assisting domestic abuse victims cutting the electronic cord to their abuser.

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

I will discuss applying the counterintelligence mindset 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.
