With the emergence of 5G wireless communications\, Internet Protocol Version S ix (IPV6)\, and the Internet of Things (IoT)\, law enforcement and public safety are presented with evolving opportunities and challenges. The volu me\, variety\, and velocity of Big Data has continued to grow over the las t 10 years. Law enforcement and public safety officers are benefiting from enhanced\, reliable communications systems such as FirstNet. There conti nue to be challenges in collecting and analyzing the volume and variety of data from investigations. Law enforcement agencies are applying artifici al intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) solutions and techniques to c ounter this challenge. At the same time\, federal mandates require agenci es to implement Zero Trust Architecture\, a cybersecurity approach that go es beyond 'trust but verify' and treats all networks and traffic as potent ial threats. Federal law enforcement agencies have begun taking steps to a dopt zero trust\, but the journey can be overwhelming. Meanwhile\, cyber c riminals are increasingly using cryptocurrency to hide their activities an d connections. Law enforcement needs the appropriate tools and resources t o conduct block-chain analysis and cryptocurrency investigations. In this 15th annual LEAPS Technology Forum\, AFCEA Bethesda will provide an opportunity for government and industry to share information about lesson s learned in resolving current challenges law enforcement faces in an incr easingly digital world.
