Digital Forensics & Incident Response

Description: The project aims to create a user-friendly interface to assist law enforcement by mapping crime hotspots based on real-time FIR (First Information Report) data. It uses color-coded visualizations to highlight areas with high crime rates. It can filter these zones by various parameters like type of crime, time, and season. Additionally, the system extends to behavioral analysis of criminals and predictive insights, such as seasonal trends in crime patterns. The tool will also help in generating optimized patrol routes.

Description: This project involves creating a tool to analyze cell tower dump data, which is a collection of location data for mobile phones connected to a specific tower at a given time. Law enforcement agencies use this data to identify potential suspects by finding common mobile numbers that appear at crime scenes or key locations. Students will simulate this process using a database of dummy mobile numbers and timestamps, identifying overlaps to narrow down suspect movements. The tool will automate the analysis and provide clear, actionable insights for investigations.

Description: This project involves building a tool to analyze and monitor network connections, focusing on detecting hidden or masked activities behind public IP addresses. Criminals or insider threat actors often disguise their true identity by using public IPs or masking techniques, making it challenging to trace their activities. The PROBE Tool will help identify and trace these hidden connections by analyzing IP, MAC, and packet data. In its advanced stage, the tool will also have the ability to terminate malicious connection requests made by the threat actor, providing an active defense mechanism. This solution will be agentless, meaning it won't require installation on individual devices, and will focus on intrusion detection and network traffic monitoring.

Description: The Drug Website Takeover Tool is designed to assist law enforcement agencies in targeting and shutting down illegal drug-related websites operating on the surface web or dark web. These websites may promote or facilitate the sale of narcotics, launder money, or engage in other criminal activities.The tool will identify vulnerabilities in such websites and enable law enforcement to disrupt their operations by taking control of the site, blocking access, or shutting it down entirely, depending on legal authority and jurisdiction.
