Digital Forensics | Davin Teo | TEDxHongKongSalon

Listen to Davin’s story, how he found his unique in Digital Forensics. Not your white lab coat job in a clean white windowless laboratory. But pulling out the bad apple from within the organization or handling the cases of anonymous death threats are among other exciting digital investigations around Asia Davin will shared with us.
Davin spends the day (and sometimes the late evening) as a Director at Alvarez & Marsal, leading their Global Forensic Technology practice in Asia.
He has handled hundreds of digital investigations and Electronic Discovery matters over his 17 year career in this field, which started in Australia, then London and now in Hong Kong. He has conducted investigations all across the globe. He’s not only seen things from a consultancy perspective but also spent a few years co-leading a global in-house forensic investigations team for Chevron.
Davin holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Commerce and Graduate Certificate in Financial Management from the University of Queensland. By night, he’s a family man and tries to spend whatever time he has with his loving wife and 4 children.

This crowd was so dry. I feel so bad, he was cracking a couple of jokes and he had to laugh at himself in order to not make it awkward. But he kept going and had a good speech despite that. So you go Teo!

[@AverageDiscordMod]

thats what im sayinnn

[@christinamonica3]

Actually good jokes too

[@acejinwoo]

This field isn't a laughing matter. The things we will have to investigate as future digital forensics experts, or current figures in the field already would definitely agree. It's not a game, as entertaining as a talk can be but it's hard to laugh when you really think about the gravity of what exactly is being talked about. I didn't crack a smile listening to this because it's that serious.

Inside of me this small voice I want to learn digital forensic but I am studying in front end.. This one is holding me back again....

[@olafhoogstad446]

Very interesting speech! I absolutely loved it! Actually, I am studying IT security, and the whole class loved it, and we all were intrigued by everything you talked about. Loved it when you said, "I don't know about you, but this excited me." Love that you are so passionate about your job!

[@HexxanonIsHere]

About to go off the college to study cyber forensic, so excited

[@HappyQuailsLC]

try "forensics"

[@osutinheizu8250]

If you’re going to nitpick, maybe use proper capitalization and punctuation.

Loved it when you're doing the same unit ;)

[@muhrr100]

Sooo cool !

[@jezreelvicente9550]

Thanks for this lecture. Here in the Philippines, we have a new degree course in college - Bachelor of Forensic Science and one of the subjects is computer forensics.

"I may look 15"😂

[@davinteo]

i know look 20 :)

15 hours in a room with computers, no windows....minus the lab coat. 😛

How tech savvy do you need to be to work in digital forensics? I’m an IT auditor and I work with “IT” related things all day but I definitely don’t have the technical experience doing things like coding. I can learn it but I’m curious whether they’ll want more technical experience up front

[@maxwellferrier3254]

My uncle owns a firm , I’m doing a internship this week , from what I can tell, you will not need any technical coding knowledge. But rather to understand and be able to navigate the forensic software and be good at typing reports so that the client can understand the report is more important .

[@c.s.pwhiteboyglitzy6990]

I haven't seen that in forever

[@HappyQuailsLC]

The whole crowd didn't burst out in laughter at the sound of "McAffee" log file?

[@Anabella1974]

Haha I know! I started to wonder if perhaps McAfee was still current 🤭

[@HappyQuailsLC]

@@Anabella1974 Amazingly, it is ! Came preloaded in my Samsung phone! But too many bad memories of inaccessible drives and data to ever do that again!

[@HappyQuailsLC]

They were able to encrypt attachments to trace back to a bank account? He didn't say "decrypt"????

[@sheleendransasi6010]

I need guidance on this career can someone help me out pls

[@SuperTabitha17]

Same! I’ve done so much research and am struggling to figure out where to study. Have you come to any conclusions?

[@davinteo]

@@SuperTabitha17 Hi guys, thanks for the comments. I would recommend trying to get a internship at the firm that handle digital forensics and/or eDiscovery. All the best with your endevours!

[@fategate8963]

Hmm, interesting So my question didn't changed, can you fix my wi fi?

[@hrithikamarriahbinoj8485]

which group should i take in 11th to become a digital forensic

[@yazzyxx]

is the pay decent for the job? I am interested in the job, but i'm not sure the pay is necessarily good. I believe the pay varies, depending on you. I am interested in getting a job with a computer science major though, so I have a couple of options

[@supercarstalkermiami6035]

He said that he wasn't going to say the country that the person was in. He mentioned euros. That gives you a good start. Somewhere in Europe and not in the U.K. because they use pounds.
