Issue 13 examines weaknesses in MS-CHAPv2 VPN authentication, fraud-detection heuristics, and operational insights from cloud-based honeypots. It evaluates CSIRT first-responder standards, virtualised lab architectures, and advances in SOC monitoring analytics. Features include disk-scanning optimisation, certificate-authority risk, and covert-channel techniques, alongside legal analysis of intellectual-property frameworks and laboratory review of emerging eDiscovery platforms.

Issue 12 addresses first-responder responsibilities, reverse-engineering of Perl2Exe binaries, and forensic risks associated with mobile-device use in public spaces. It examines ethical-hacking practice, Mac forensics tooling, and social-network evidence extraction. Additional features explore covert-channel techniques, scalable video identification, and SMS-2FA bypass methods, alongside legal analysis of the Megaupload case and laboratory insights into UFED Touch workflows.

Issue 11 explores operational challenges central to contemporary digital investigations, including entry-point failures that stall casework, stochastic methods for attributing data theft, and weaknesses in WPS security. It examines mobile-forensics growth in China, Mac imaging practices, botnet dynamics, covert-channel detection, evidential standards in China, and advanced image-analysis workflows—providing practitioners with applied insights for more resilient, defensible forensic operations.

Issue 10 examines evolving challenges in mobile and smartphone forensics, including Android credential cracking, iOS 5 artefacts, and advanced Windows Mobile analysis. It explores evidential uncertainty, traceback methodologies, and the escalating scale of digital evidence. Practitioner perspectives include professional interviews, organisational profiles, and applied chip-off techniques, offering practical insight into contemporary investigative and operational constraints.

Issue 9 explores practical tools and investigative techniques spanning malware detection with Wireshark, browser-based device tracking, and large-scale social-media monitoring. It examines cryptanalysis on distributed systems, deep-packet inspection in high-speed networks, Mac geotagging artefacts, and digital-archiving challenges. The issue also addresses evidential uncertainty, evolving privacy law, and advanced forensic tooling, offering practitioners operational depth across contemporary investigative domains.
