Presentation / Conference Contribution
Thomson, M., McKeown, S., Macfarlane, R., & Leimich, P. (2025, April). Exploring Dataset Diversity for GenAI Image Tampering Localisation in Digital Forensics. Presented at The Digital Forensics Research Conference Europe (DFRWS EU 2025) Digital Forensics Doctoral Symposium (DFDS), Brno, Czech Republic

Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) has significantly increased the sophistication and ease of image tampering techniques, posing challenges for digital forensics in identifying manipulated images. A lack of dataset standardisation hinders the... Read More about Exploring Dataset Diversity for GenAI Image Tampering Localisation in Digital Forensics.

A Bibliometric Analysis and Systematic Review of a Blockchain-Based Chain of Custody for Digital Evidence (2024)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Onyeashie, B. I., Leimich, P., McKeown, S., & Russell, G. (2023, August). A Bibliometric Analysis and Systematic Review of a Blockchain-Based Chain of Custody for Digital Evidence. Presented at EAI BDTA 2023 - 13th EAI International Conference on Big Data Technologies and Applications, Edinburgh, UK

The effective management of digital evidence is critical to modern forensic investigations. However, traditional evidence management approaches are often prone to security and integrity issues. In recent years, the use of blockchain technology has em... Read More about A Bibliometric Analysis and Systematic Review of a Blockchain-Based Chain of Custody for Digital Evidence.

An Auditable Framework for Evidence Sharing and Management using Smart Lockers and Distributed Technologies: Law Enforcement Use Case (2024)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Onyeashie, B., Leimich, P., McKeown, S., & Russell, G. (2023, August). An Auditable Framework for Evidence Sharing and Management using Smart Lockers and Distributed Technologies: Law Enforcement Use Case. Presented at EAI BDTA 2023 - 13th EAI International Conference on Big Data Technologies and Applications, Edinburgh

This paper presents a decentralised framework for sharing and managing evidence that uses smart lockers, blockchain technology, and the InterPlanetary File System (IPFS). The system incorporates Hyperledger Fabric blockchain for immutability and tamp...
