Hey everyone! I’m a student preparing a Digital Forensics / Computer Forensics practical presentation and I need to choose a real-world cybercrime case study.

I’m looking for a case that:

- Is not extremely common/popular (I want to avoid topics that many groups may choose)

- Has enough reliable information available online

- Has a clear digital evidence / forensic investigation angle

- Can be explained within 12–15 slides / 10–15 minutes

- Ideally involves things like hacking, gaming companies, Apple/iPhone, data theft, ransomware, website attacks, insider threats, digital evidence, or incident response

- Allows discussion of evidence acquisition, preservation, logs/artifacts, timelines, attribution, and/or legal issues

What real-world case would you recommend?

If possible, please share the case name and why you think it would work well for a student-level digital forensics presentation.

Thanks!

I’m trying to get my head around what DPDPA implementation actually looks like inside a company. Everything I read makes sense at the legal level, but once you start thinking about actual systems — customer databases, CRM, analytics, vendors, employee data, deletion requests, access controls etc. — it seems like a much bigger project.

For companies that are already doing ISO 27001 or SOC 2, are you just extending the existing controls for DPDPA or treating it as a completely separate project? And for smaller companies without a dedicated privacy team, what are people actually doing?

Was randomly testing some websites and now I have access to sensitive docs, now what?

(It was from one one of our lovely neighbouring countries)

My company is hiring for a Cybersecurity Analyst with 5–10 years of experience. The role is remote and focuses on cybersecurity operations, vulnerability management, incident response, security compliance, risk assessment, and security monitoring.

If anyone is interested and needs a referral, feel free to DM me. Happy to help with the referral process.

I Have a upcoming interview with altered security as a security engineer i am fresher and i dont know what to prepare if anyone can suggest me with some tips it would be great.

Is there actually anyway to surf the internet securely and anonymously without leaving any trace or making it practically non-viable for any individual or spyware to trace my activity back to me?

I don't have much knowledge of cybersec, but I do understand basics of networks. I'm asking this out of curiosity for cyber-sec and would appreciate any insight the community has to offer.

I was wondering what are the ways a person can receive money online anonymously in india

Are there any other ways except for crypto currency ?

Imagine getting a WhatsApp message:

>🎉 Congratulations! You have won ₹25,00,000 in the Kerala Lottery.

They send you a ticket number.
A “winning certificate.”
A draw date.
Then someone calls claiming to be from the lottery department.

For a moment, you think:

“Wait… what if this is actually real?”

Then comes the catch.

“Sir, you just need to pay ₹2,500 for processing.”

You pay.

Then ₹7,500 for GST.

Then ₹12,000 for “tax clearance.”

Then another payment because your account supposedly needs “verification.”

Every time:

“This is the final payment. After this, your ₹25 lakh will be released.”

Except there is no ₹25 lakh.

There was never a winning ticket.

The entire thing was built around one simple psychological trick:

They don't ask you for ₹25 lakh.

They ask for ₹2,500.

Then another small amount.

And because you've already paid, walking away feels like losing everything.

So you keep paying.

The easiest rule to remember:

If you didn't buy the lottery ticket, you didn't win the lottery.

And if someone asks you to pay money before giving you your “prize” — stop.

Don't click their links.
Don't call the number they provide.
Don't send another payment.

Verify through the official lottery channels independently.

If you've already paid, save the UPI IDs, transaction IDs, phone numbers and screenshots and report it immediately.

The prize was fake.
The payment was real.

Have you or someone you know received one of these “lottery winner” calls?

I was talking with my ex today .. and it was a usual call. He is a govt employee in intelligence .. jokingly he said.. i can track you whenever i want( he just tracked my accurate address earlier ) and can literally tap into your phone and see what you're doing .. where and with whom you're.. is it possible? I'm really scared. Would be great if anyone could tell me is it really true? And how can i prevent this? Is privacy so cheap?

Same as the title, I once met a guy who had just graduated and was working on a contract basis. The pay wasn't good, but I don't really care about it.

I was learning malware dev and some RE, so I, thought, why not give it some more time and learn RE and malware analysis properly, and try the contract work? But I'm pretty tight on time, so I want to know if it's realistic.

From what ig getting, that contract/work is mainly possible through connections, but is there still any other way?
