The pervasive presence of the internet and the ubiquitous use of electronic devices for communication and processing have deeply woven technology into people’s lives. While this integration provides ample opportunities for interaction and collaboration, it also exposes vulnerabilities ripe for criminal exploitation.
Computer forensics is a specialized field dedicated to the collection, extraction, preservation, and analysis of digital evidence to facilitate investigation and audit processes. Its landscape is marked by significant challenges, ranging from technological complexities to legal and social barriers, demanding highly skilled professionals to navigate these complexities.
The 13th Workshop on Computer Forensics (WFC) is a forum featuring discussions, lectures, and technical presentations on cutting-edge regulations and technologies pertinent to computational forensics. Moreover, it also seeks to identify research challenges and foster collaboration between researchers and industry experts.
The event companion proceedings will be published as open-access in SBC OpenLib (SOL) at https://sol.sbc.org.br/index.php/sbseg_estendido.

This edition of the WFC will feature guest lectures alongside contributions in the form of extended abstracts. Abstracts of up to 4 pages are invited to address a spectrum of topics including research challenges derived from practical problems, reports on successful or failed cases highlighting challenges and lessons learned, empirical studies showcasing practical insights, reports on the use of innovative methods, techniques, and tools, or speculative visions (technological or scientific) regarding the future of computational forensics.
Contributions may be submitted in either Portuguese or English, adhering to the formatting guidelines outlined by the SBC for article publication, available on the SBC portal (https://www.sbc.org.br/documentos-da-sbc/summary/169-templates-para-artigos-e-capitulos-de-livros/878-modelosparapublicaodeartigos). Note that only the abstract is required. Submission of papers will be exclusively in PDF format via the SBC’s JEMS system: https://submissoes.sbc.org.br/home.cgi?c=4552 .
A program committee will review submissions, selecting those deemed suitable for presentation at the WFC. Accepted abstracts will be included in the proceedings of SBSeg.
