One of the things I loved about HTCIA 2023 was making new friends.

“Thanks to HTCIA for hosting this wonderful event”
Ali Hadi, Program Director, Champlain College
“I was fortunate to attend the HTCIA 2023 conference in Phoenix. Attending trainings ranging from leveraging AI, Cloud Forensics, and Cyber Threats. This cyber space is growing and the demand for quality is key. Thankful to meet so many wonderful people.”
Alexandra O, Banner Health
“I always have heard about the HTCIA conference, but this was my first time attending it. Well, I can tell you the conference did not disappoint for a moment. It was well organized, and we even received breakfast, lunch, and dinner during the conference, but what was even better was the quality of the talks.” Robert Jan Mora
Join us the week of July 22nd, 2024 only in-person for timely educational sessions, engaging networking opportunities, and dedicated time to connect with sponsors.
This year’s conference includes topics related to Cloud forensics, Cryptocurrency investigations, qualifications of the digital forensic examiner as a witness, forensic analysis of data in an SQLite database, PowerShell of Incident Response, OSINT techniques, IOS Forensics and many more technology investigation topics.
