    2:00 PM - 3:30 PM MT
    Location: Mile High Ballroom 4AB, Colorado Convention Center
    Vehicles are rapidly becoming a significant source of digital evidence in criminal investigations. Modern vehicles—particularly smart and autonomous cars—generate vast amounts of digital information, including call logs, contact lists, messages, event data recorder (EDR) outputs, telematics and infotainment system data, GPS navigation history, Bluetooth device connections, and vehicle performance metrics such as acceleration, speed, and braking status. This presentation offers a concise overview of forensic approaches, tools, and standards used in the digital examination of autonomous and semi-autonomous vehicles. It also addresses the challenges unique to this emerging field and presents a case study on the forensic acquisition and data analysis of a vehicle’s infotainment system.
