AVF: Advanced Video Forensics Course

The Advanced Video Forensics Course (AVF) is a five-day course designed to give investigators, forensic examiners and analysts a deep understanding of digital video technology and enable them to answer complex questions about video evidence.
Students will gain foundational knowledge of how digital video is encoded and stored in order to provide an expert analysis of it. This course will also focus on the authentication of digital video (including deepfake videos) and identifying the source of unknown video files. A variety of cell phone captured and transmitted video, as well as cloud and social media stored files will be utilized to effectively interpret and gain insight into video from various sources. Open-source tools as well as the Medex Forensics video examination tool – Medex will be featured to give students real world insights into practical use cases.
