[DFSci] DFRWS Statement on U.S. Presidential Executive Order 13780

[Eoghan Casey]

DFRWS supports an international community of researchers, developers, and practitioners with a legitimate interest in digital forensic research.

The U.S. Presidential Executive Order 13780 titled “Protecting The Nation From Foreign Terrorist Entry Into The United States” could prevent legitimate members of the digital forensic community from attending the DFRWS Conference in the United States.

To continue supporting collaboration between members of our community throughout the world, the DFRWS will make every effort to arrange alternate ways to participate (e.g., video conference, presenting at the DFRWS EU).
