Frequently asked

Glossary

1

Lawful interception (LI)

The legally authorised access to communications traffic - voice, messaging, IP or satellite - by a designated agency under a warrant or court order. At ISS World Latin America, LI sessions cover handover interfaces, mediation platforms and the legal paperwork carriers and regulators must reconcile before a tap goes live.

2

OSINT (open-source intelligence)

Intelligence produced from publicly available material such as websites, social feeds, registries, shipping data and commercial databases. The conference's social media and internet investigation track shows how analysts move from a username or image to a documented, court-defensible profile.

3

Digital forensics

The seizure, imaging, preservation and analysis of devices and data so findings survive cross-examination. Exhibitors on the show floor demonstrate mobile extraction kits, write-blockers, forensic workstations and lab-scale processing for case backlogs.

4

Social media investigation

Structured collection and analysis of posts, accounts, geolocation and network links across platforms for criminal, counter-terrorism or missing-person cases. A dedicated Spanish-language session in the 2026 programme covers social network and internet investigations for Latin American units.

5

SIGINT (signals intelligence)

Intelligence derived from intercepted electronic signals, including radio, cellular and satellite links. ISS World sessions discuss collection architecture, spectrum management and how SIGINT feeds into multi-source analysis for national security agencies.

6

Cyber threat intelligence (CTI)

Evidence-based knowledge about adversaries - their infrastructure, tooling, tactics and targeting - used to prioritise defence and investigations. CTI briefings at the show connect commercial feeds and telemetry to law-enforcement casework and CERT response.

7

Dark web monitoring

Systematic observation of hidden services, marketplaces and closed forums for leaked credentials, criminal trade or threat actor chatter. Vendors demonstrate monitoring consoles and takedown support used by police cyber units and financial fraud teams.

8

Mobile device forensics

Extraction and analysis of smartphones, SIM cards and app data - including locked and encrypted handsets - for evidential use. This is one of the largest equipment categories on the ISS World exhibition floor.

9

Encrypted traffic analysis

Techniques for deriving investigative value from encrypted or tunnelled traffic without breaking the cipher - metadata, flow analysis, endpoint agents and lawful interception of plaintext at the service provider. Sessions address lawful access debates and vendor capabilities.

10

Deep packet inspection (DPI)

Inspection of packet payloads and headers at network chokepoints for classification, policy enforcement or lawful interception. Carrier-grade DPI platforms are demonstrated to telecom operators and regulators attending the event.

11

Electronic evidence (e-evidence)

Digital material collected for legal proceedings, including cloud records, call detail records and device images. ISS World panels cover cross-border requests, provider cooperation and chain-of-custody standards.

12

Chain of custody

The documented, unbroken record of who handled evidence, when and how. Forensics workshops at the conference stress defensible workflows from field seizure through lab analysis to courtroom presentation.
