Technology Threats and Trends Against Law Enforcement

Technology saturates our everyday lives, yet so many technologies are being developed with the specific purpose of targeting police officers or hiding criminal activity. This is a unique and eye-opening class for prosecutors, law enforcement personnel, and anyone working in the judicial system who wants to learn more about how technologies are being used (or misused) to commit crimes, avoid or detect investigations, and to conduct counter-surveillance.

Not only will this class examine and demonstrate how individuals are misusing these technologies, but it will also reveal simple, inexpensive ways to mitigate their success as well as provide some investigative tips. Although dealing with technology issues, this course is instructed in a manner that both the novice and the expert will understand and appreciate.

The course utilizes a combination of lectures, multimedia examples, case studies, and live demonstrations involving the attendees.

The course is for certified law enforcement officers.
