Profs & Pints DC: What Digital Detectives Find
[Profs and Pints DC](https://www.profsandpints.com/washingtondc) presents: **âWhat Digital Detectives Find,â** on the afterlife of your digital data and the methods of those who investigate it, with Jim Jones, associate professor at George Mason University and cyber security and digital forensics expert.
[Advance tickets: $13.50 plus sales tax and processing fees. Available at [https://events.ticketleap.com/tickets/profsandpints/dc-digital-detectives](https://events.ticketleap.com/tickets/profsandpints/dc-digital-detectives) .]
What happens when you delete digital data such as a picture, video, or email message?
The truth is that âdeletedâ doesn't mean âgone,â and digital forensic investigators can extract and make sense of the residual fragments left over from data often assumed to be gone forever.
Learn about the field of digital forensicsâand the lessons it offers those who worry about sensitive data being exposedâwith Jim Jones, who has been a cyber security and digital forensics practitioner, researcher, and educator for more than 30 years.
Youâll learn how all investigations today, criminal and otherwise, to some degree involve digital forensics, an interdisciplinary field that draws from computer engineering, computer science, information technology, law, and ethics. Digital forensics doesnât just respond to specific incidents, but also seeks out threats within organizations, analyzes malware, and buttresses cyber security. Much of the work of Dr. Jones, his colleagues, and students involves examining digital systems of all types to understand how data persists and decays and how it can be found and recovered.
Dr. Jones will discuss how what happens to the digital data that you deleted depends on the type of device you are using, along with a host of other factors. You'll learn how digital data is stored on different devices and what does and doesnât happen when you delete that data. You'll see examples of data extracted from different devices, demonstrations of what can be inferred from these remnants, and how investigators can tell if such remnants are genuine or not.
Finally, you'll learn about strategies to mitigate the risk of exposing sensitive data. Dr. Jones will sort those that work from those that donât. (Doors: $17, or $15 with a student ID. Listed time is for doors. Talk starts 30 minutes later.)

Iran's Grand Strategy, by Vali Nasr
*From the [publisher's website](https://press.princeton.edu/books/hardcover/9780691268927/irans-grand-strategy):*
Iran presents one of the most significant foreign policy challenges for America and the West, yet very little is known about what the countryâs goals really are. Vali Nasr examines Iranâs political history in new ways to explain its actions and ambitions on the world stage, showing how, behind the veneer of theocracy and Islamic ideology, todayâs Iran is pursuing a grand strategy aimed at securing the country internally and asserting its place in the region and the world.
Drawing on memoirs, oral histories, and original in-depth interviews with Iranian decision makers, Nasr brings to light facts and events in Iranâs political history that have been overlooked until now. He traces the roots of Iranâs strategic outlook to its experiences over the past four decades of war with Iraq in the 1980s and the subsequent American containment of Iran, invasion of Iraq in 2003, and posture toward Iran thereafter. Nasr reveals how these experiences have shaped a geopolitical outlook driven by pervasive fear of America and its plans for the Middle East.
Challenging the notion that Iranâs foreign policy simply reflects its revolutionary values or theocratic government, *Iranâs Grand Strategy* provides invaluable new insights into what Iran wants and why, explaining the countryâs resistance to the United States, its nuclear ambitions, and its pursuit of influence and proxies across the Middle East.
