You will learn to Collect\, Preserve\, Exa mine and Report evidence found within the Drone Device.\n\nThe use of Dron es is growing rapidly and expanding to criminal enterprises and terrorist organizations. Police Corrections Facilities and deployed militaries are d ealing with drones on a regular basis. Read the news today and you are lik ely to find an article discussing the malicious use of a Drone. Strategies and techniques to properly collect and examine these devices are not wide ly known\, leaving investigators with the following challenges:\n\n How d o you collect Drones?\n How do you extract data from these devices?\n Ho w do you report the information?\n How do you prove criminal intent and a ssociate it to an individual as oppose to the wind pushing the device off route?\n\nMany investigators today stop after retrieving videos\, then hop e they have software to extract them. Drones do much more than record vide o\, they can transport illegal payload like drugs and weapons\, but also d eliver munitions or act as the projectile!\nThis course will cover all of these questions and more and will give you the skills to Collect\, Preserv e\, Examine\, and Report (CPER) the hidden intelligence within a Drone. In addition\, you will leave with the skills necessary to testify in court a nd to de-velop strategies to collect data residing on these mobile platfor m as they evolve.\n\n \; CATEGORIES:Advanced Skills™,High Tech Crime Institute,Professionalizing the Force® LOCATION:STS HQ Office\, 2301 Armstrong\, Suite 207\, Livermore\, Californi a\, 94551\, United States GEO:37.698043;-121.81129299999998 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=2301 Armstrong\, Suite 207\ , Livermore\, California\, 94551\, United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X-TITL E=STS HQ Office:geo:37.698043,-121.81129299999998 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:84@specialtacticssolutions.com DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20170918T081500 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20170922T170000 DTSTAMP:20170725T170656Z URL:https://specialtacticssolutions.com/events/adv_hlz_survey/ SUMMARY:Advanced HLZ Survey™ Course DESCRIPTION:\nAdvanced Helicopter Landing Zone (HLZ) Survey Course™\nAn a dvanced 5-day course covering all aspects of tactical and administrative H elicopter Landing Zone (HLZ) surveying and reassessments\, including a rev iew of Safety of Flight (SoF) procedures\, and survey package submission t o the final approving authority.

Police Corrections Facilities and deployed militaries are d ealing with drones on a regular basis. Read the news today and you are lik ely to find an article discussing the malicious use of a Drone. Strategies and techniques to properly collect and examine these devices are not wide ly known\, leaving investigators with the following challenges:\n\n How d o you collect Drones?\n How do you extract data from these devices?\n Ho w do you report the information?\n How do you prove criminal intent and a ssociate it to an individual as oppose to the wind pushing the device off route?\n\nMany investigators today stop after retrieving videos\, then hop e they have software to extract them. Drones do much more than record vide o\, they can transport illegal payload like drugs and weapons\, but also d eliver munitions or act as the projectile!\nThis course will cover all of these questions and more and will give you the skills to Collect\, Preserv e\, Examine\, and Report (CPER) the hidden intelligence within a Drone. In addition\, you will leave with the skills necessary to testify in court a nd to de-velop strategies to collect data residing on these mobile platfor m as they evolve.\n\n \; CATEGORIES:Advanced Skills™,High Tech Crime Institute,Professionalizing the Force® LOCATION:STS HQ Office\, 2301 Armstrong\, Suite 207\, Livermore\, Californi a\, 94551\, United States GEO:37.698043;-121.81129299999998 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=2301 Armstrong\, Suite 207\ , Livermore\, California\, 94551\, United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X-TITL E=STS HQ Office:geo:37.698043,-121.81129299999998 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:100@specialtacticssolutions.com DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE:20180910 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE:20180915 DTSTAMP:20180409T204405Z URL:https://specialtacticssolutions.com/events/introductory-advanced-hlz-s urvey-course/ SUMMARY:Introductory & Advanced HLZ Survey™ Course DESCRIPTION:\nAdvanced Helicopter Landing Zone (HLZ) Survey Course™\nAn a dvanced 5-day course covering all aspects of tactical and administrative H elicopter Landing Zone (HLZ) surveying and reassessments\, including a rev iew of Safety of Flight (SoF) procedures\, and survey package submission t o the final approving authority.
