What it is

Magnet Forensics' online DFIR conference, delivered over several weeks of sessions. The 2026 edition has taken place and its recordings are published as a free replay library, searchable by speaker, theme, language and week, covering mobile forensics, cloud investigations, video analysis and corporate investigations.

Who it is for, and when

For most practitioners the replay library is the real product: a large body of current artefact and workflow talks you can watch for nothing, including a good deal of research presented by non-Magnet examiners. It is the cheapest way to keep current if your employer will not fund travel, and the mobile and cloud sessions track where the evidence is actually moving. The 2026 edition also ran a capture-the-flag competition, and the 2027 edition is announced for 8 to 11 February 2027.

What it does not cover

It is a vendor-hosted event and a fair proportion of the sessions are delivered by Magnet product specialists around Magnet tooling, so it is not a neutral survey and not peer reviewed. Being virtual, it gives you none of the corridor contact of an in-person conference, and the in-person Magnet User Summit — Austin, Texas, 8 to 10 March 2027 — is a separate, paid event.

  • Cellebrite's customer event programme. Through 2026 the listing is dominated by regional user forums and government forums — Toronto, Halifax, Bern, Seattle, Jakarta, several US district attorney technology days, a London CTF — with the large C2C User Summit itself shown as a 2027 event.

  • A long-running US digital forensics and investigations conference, now produced by Comexposium. The site lists one 2026 edition: San Diego, California, 20-22 October 2026 at the Town & Country Resort.

  • CyberDefenders

    Partly free

    A blue-team lab platform hosting scenario-based investigations grouped as endpoint forensics, network forensics, malware analysis, cloud forensics, threat hunting, detection engineering and threat intelligence. Challenges are question-and-answer over supplied evidence, with a scoreboard.

  • A commercial digital forensics platform that acquires, processes, and reports on computer, mobile, cloud, and vehicle data in a single case, organised around artefact recovery rather than raw file system browsing. AXIOM Cyber is the variant aimed at corporate incident response, internal investigations, and ediscovery, adding remote endpoint collection.

  • Magnet Forensics' blog and resource library, mixing artifact research and how-to posts with webinars, white papers, case studies and product content across mobile, cloud, vehicle and media forensics.
