Biography

Louisiana State University - Computer Science

Professor of Computer Science and Associate Director for Cybersecurity at CCT, Louisiana State University
Computer & Network Security
Golden G.
Richard III
Greater New Orleans Area
I am a Professor of Computer Science and Associate Director for Cybersecurity at the Center for Computation and Technology (CCT) at LSU. Formerly, I was University Research Professor and Professor of Computer Science at the University of New Orleans for more than 20 years, where I also directed the Greater New Orleans Center for Information Assurance (GNOCIA).

I also own Arcane Alloy, LLC, a private digital forensics and computer security company. I am a certified digital forensics investigator with over a decade of extensive experience in casework, malware analysis, expert testimony, research, instruction, and tool development. I was one of the first investigators to be granted GIAC/GCFA Gold digital forensics certification and I am a Fellow of the American Academy of Forensic Sciences (AAFS).

Essentially, I'm an experimental computer scientist with extensive experience in digital forensics, reverse engineering, malware analysis, computer security in general, low-level programming, and operating systems internals. My career in computer security and computer science in general spans over 35 years.

Specialties: Digital forensics, computer security, reverse engineering, malware analysis, mobile computing, networking, operating systems internals, photography.

  • Acquisition and analysis of volatile memory from android devices

    Digital Investigation

    The Android operating system for mobile phones, which is still relatively new, is rapidly gaining market share, with dozens of smartphones and tablets either released or set to be released. In this paper, we present the first methodology and toolset for acquisition and deep analysis of volatile physical memory from Android devices. The paper discusses some of the challenges in performing Android memory acquisition, discusses our new kernel module for dumping memory, named dmd, and specifically addresses the difficulties in developing device-independent acquisition tools. Our acquisition tool supports dumping memory to either the SD on the phone or via the network. We also present analysis of kernel structures using newly developed Volatility functionality. The results of this work illustrate the potential that deep memory analysis offers to digital forensics investigators.
