Call for Posters and Demos

EAI ICDF2C 2026 invites Poster and Demo submissions on key topics in digital forensics, security, and risk management, offering a platform for valuable feedback to refine and advance your research.

Presentation-only session (no publication output)

This session aims at reporting on the progress of ongoing research and insights into the lessons learned from current digital forensics & cyber crime projects in a face-to-face, hands-on, and more informal setting. We invite a wide range of topics and types of work, including evaluations, methodologies, technological innovations, and design in the area of digital forensics & cybercrime. We encourage the authors to use the Posters and Demos venue as a way to open up discussions with the ICDF2C community about their early work in progress and develop the work for future collaborations. Representatives from industry, including established companies and startups, are warmly welcome to showcase products and services that are related to the topics of the conference.

Submission

Poster and demo submissions should be submittedd to by the 15th of August, 2026.

Please note that a shorter version of already published work is not suitable for this session. We expect most works to include a short introduction, a description of the employed methods and, if applicable, results.

Presentation Format: Poster + Lightning Talk

The Main Poster: A visual display of your project for attendees to browse during the entire duration of the conference.
The Lightning Talk: A 3-minute presentation to introduce your work, spark discussion, and gather peer feedback.
