I take the podcast on the road and speak with Ted Levison, Senior Investigator for the Major Crimes Unit of New York State Police Troop B in Norwood, New York. Where the heck is Norwood you ask. Well it is at the top of NY on the border with Canada (and no NOT near BUFFALO). It is not the end of the world but you can see it from there. Ted and I discuss the difficulties in investigating and prosecuting cybercrime and other cyber matters in small rural areas like St. Lawrence County. Though really the issues we discuss are likely found everywhere. Email me with questions for future podcasts at darren@thecyburguy.com or find me on www.linkedin.com/in/darrenmott.
