Also, we saw a number of presentations by digital forensic professional with a wealth of experience.

During coffee breaks we could communicate with our colleagues from other countries.

On the conference you could win Belkasoft, Elcomsoft or SMTDP Technology license. We won SMTDP Technology (Forgery Detection) license and would use this piece of software in our examinations, for sure.

Also, we had an excursion through Saint Petersburg – the city with lots of beautiful historical places.

We had dinner in a café facing Saint Isaac’s Cathedral. This is the most important cathedral in Russia.

Attendees had an opportunity to visit the Scarlet Sales Show. This is one of the biggest water performances in the world, held on open water, based on Alexander Grin’s novel. Ships sail along the riverwalk, fireworks in the sky, and beautiful music all around. Unforgettable performance!

We invite all our readers to visit the third Belkasoft: White Nights conference in 2017!
