Hello Reader,
If you watched the forensic lunch this week you heard Ian Duffy talking about his work looking into the structures of Microsoft Office documents. There are many times in my career where an investigation can become centered on now only when a document was accessed but; what was done with it, what computer did it come from, who edited it, etc... This week let's see how many different sources of forensic facts you can determine from Microsoft Office documents.
The Prize:
