But while the tools and techniques may have advanced, so too have the complexities: hybrid and remote workforces, supply chain compromises, expanding attack surfaces, and the increasing pressure to collect evidence before it disappears. \u00a0 In this special episode of Cyber Unpacked, hosts Doug Metz, Senior Security Forensics Specialist, and Jeff Rutherford, Forensic Consultant, bring together a panel of DFIR leaders to explore the state of digital investigations today. We\u2019ll unpack some of the top challenges investigative teams face, from AI\u2019s opportunities and risks to common pitfalls they\u2019ve overcome. They\u2019ll also share how different organizations are adapting, why celebrating internal wins matters, and what trends DFIR leaders should be paying attention to next. \u00a0 Join us for what\u2019s sure to be a lively discussion on where DFIR is headed, and how you can equip your team to respond with speed, accuracy, and confidence in an ever-evolving technological landscape."}
